Talking Points:

• NZD/USD Technical Strategy: Short at 0.7783
• Support: 0.7420, 0.7275, 0.7130
• Resistance:0.7524, 0.7599, 0.7680

The New Zealand Dollar fell against its US namesake as expected, with sellers attempting to clear a path beyond the 0.73 figure. A daily close below the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 0.7420 exposes the 38.2% level at 0.7275. Alternatively, a move above channel floor support-turned-resistance at 0.7524 opens the door for a challenge of the 23.6% Fib at 0.7599.

We entered short NZDUSD at 0.7783 and have subsequently booked profits on half of the position. The remainder of the position remains open to capture continued downside momentum. The stop-loss is now at the breakeven level (0.7783).
