FxWirePro: NZD/JPY finds strong support at 75.60, good to go short on break below

  • NZD/JPY extending fall for 5th straight week, hits 8-week lows at 75.59. 
     
  • NZD on the defensive on dampening  data for the New Zealand economy.
     
  • Markets are likely pushing out expectations of any rate hikes from RBNZ into 2019.
     
  • On the other side, renewed tensions in the Korean peninsula may have added to the Yen's safe haven appeal.
     
  • North Korea has threatened to call off the planned summit with the US President Trump in response to joint military exercise by the United States and South Korea.
     
  • The pair is trading with a bearish bias. Technical indicators on weekly charts support further weakness in the pair.
     
  • We see major trendline support at 75.60, break below will see further downside in the pair.
     
  • Rejection at trendline support at 75.60 could see upside till 21-EMA at 76.65. Violation there could see further bullishness.

Support levels - 75.60 (trendline), 75, 74.83 (61.8% Fib)

Resistance levels - 75.90 (5-DMA), 76, 76.65 (21-EMA)
