Pair's Outlook
As expected, the US Dollar slumped against its New Zealand counterpart. The Kiwi gained twice as much as it lost on Tuesday; however, the 50% Fibonacci retracement and weekly R1 prevented the currency from advancing further. Meanwhile, the technical indicators are emitting bullish signals, thus the NZD/USD cross is expected to extend its rally, unless Friday's US data show improvement. Closest resistance now shifted to a cluster of important levels around 0.7624.
Traders' Sentiment
Market sentiment still stays on the bearish side, as 42% of positions are long. Nonetheless, the sell orders are in the majority, accounting for 53% of all pending orders in the 100-pip range.
