  • AUD/NZD breaks past major resistance at 1.0895 on Tuesday's trade, spikes past 1.09 handle.
     
  • Aussie trades marginally lower against Kiwi after AIG services index missed expectations.
     
  • Data released earlier today showed Australia September AIG services index decreased to 52.1 vs previous 53.
     
  • The pair is trading in a narrow range on the day, consolidating previous session gains.
     
  • 20-DMA at 1.0954 is strong resistance, pair struggling to break above.
     
  • Technical indicators on intraday charts have turned slightly bullish, Stochs have rolled over from oversold levels and RSI is above 50.
     
  • That said, techs on weekly charts are still bearish. Stiff resistance lies at 1.1155 (major trendline), only decisive break above could see further upside.

Support levels - 1.09, 1.0894 (converged 50&5-DMA), 1.0848 (38.2% Fib retrace of 1.0370 to 1.1143 rise)
