FxWirePro: NZD/USD extend grind above 200-DMA, eyes channel top at 0.7275, stay long

  • NZD/USD is extending grind above 200-DMA and we see scope for test channel top at 0.7275.
     
  • Upbeat China trade data keeps the antipodeans buoyed.
     
  • Data released earlier today showed China's exports spiked 15.5% y/y, beating the estimate of 13.5%. Imports jumped 22.1% y/y, bettering the estimate of 16.1% rise.
     
  • The pair is trading with a major bullish bias, RSI strong at 71 and MACD supporting uptrend.
     
  • Stochs are in highly overbought territory which warrants some caution.
