  • NZD/JPY extends grind lower after rejection at channel top, bias still lower.
     
  • The pair has broken major trendline support and closed below 20-DMA on Tuesday's trade.
     
  • We see a bearish 5 and 20-DMA crossover on daily charts. Technical indicators bearish.
     
  • RSI has slipped below 50 levels and Stochs are also biased lower. Bearish divergence observed on RSI and Stochs on daily charts adds scope for further downside.
     
  • Next bear target is 50-DMA at 81.24. Violation there could see further downside.
     
  • On the flipside, retrace above 20-DMA could see retest of channel top at 83.95.

Support levels - 81.67 (July 18 low), 81.24 (50-DMA), 81

Resistance levels - 81.95 (23.6% Fib retrace of 75.626 to 83.910 rally), 82.51 (5-DMA), 82.67 (20-DMA)

Call update: Our previous call (http://www.econotimes.com/FxWirePro-NZD-JPY-finds-strong-support-at-20-DMA-good-to-go-short-on-break-below-828087) has almost hit all targets.

Recommendation: Book partial profits at lows, lower stops to 82.70, stay short for 81.25.
