FxWirePro: NZD/JPY breaks below 61.8% Fib, bias lower, good to go short on upticks

• NZD/JPY trades 0.47% lower on the day, at 74.56 at the time of writing.
   
• The pair has broken major trendline support at 74.80, bias remains bearish.
   
• Kiwi remains under pressure after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) kept the overnight cash rate (OCR) unchanged at 1.75 percent.
   
• The RBNZ statement has a more dovish bias with the central bank also hinting readiness to act if conditions sway from its expected path.
   
• Technical indicators are bearish. Momentum with the bears and -ve DMI dominance adds support to downside.
   
• Price has broken below 61.8% Fib and we see scope for test of 78.6% Fib at 72.3 levels.
   
• Bearish invalidation likely if the pair manages to retrace break below 74.80 (trendline). Close above could see some pull back.

Support levels - 74, 72.37 (78.6% Fib)

Resistance levels - 74.80 (trendline), 75.29 (5-DMA)

Recommendation: Good to go short on upticks around 74.60/70, SL: 75, TP: 74/ 73/ 72.40
