  • NZD/USD hits fresh 19-week highs at 0.7389, is extending upside for 7th straight week.
     
  • The major has shown decisive breakout at 200W SMA which keeps scope for further upside.
     
  • Price action currently hovers around 78.6% Fib retrace of 0.7558 to 0.6780 fall at 0.7391.
     
  • Breakout at 78.6% Fib is likely to accentuate gains higher. Scope then for test of 0.7434 (Sept 20 high) ahead of channel top at 0.76 levels.
     
  • Technical indicators support further upside. Momentum indicators are highly bullish.
     
  • Retrace and close below 200W SMA at 0.7273 invalidates bullish bias.

Support levels - 0.73 (5-DMA), 0.7272 (200W SMA), 0.7261 (61.8% Fib retrace of 0.7558 to 0.6780 fall), 0.72

Call update: Our previous call has hit all targets.

Recommendation: Good to go long on break above 0.7391, SL: 0.73, TP: 0.7434/ 0.75/ 0.7560
