FxWirePro: NZD/CAD fails to hold break above 200-DMA, bias bearish

  • NZD/CAD retraced most of the downside on Thursday's trade to close largely unchanged at 0.9439.
     
  • The pair extended upside on the day to break above 200-DMA at 0.9459 and hit highs of 0.9470.
     
  • But the pair failed to hold upside above 200-DMA and has given up most of the gains.
     
  • Doji formation seen on daily candle, the pair trades with a strong bearish bias, scope for test of 78.6% Fib at 0.9297.
     
  • The pair has broken below major trendline support at 0.95 levels last week and we see bearish invalidation only on close above 200-DMA at 0.9459.
