"The 0.7161 high registered yesterday was just below last week's peak at 0.7170. The rapid pull-back from the high suggests that upward pressure has eased and NZD has likely moved into a consolidation phase." 
- UOB (based on FXStreet) 


Pair's Outlook 
The New Zealand Dollar was unable to climb over the monthly pivot point for the third consecutive time on Tuesday, resulting in a 24-pip loss against the US currency. Since the weekly PP prevented the NZD/USD pair from falling deeper down yesterday, demand around this area appears to be strong. Consequently, the Kiwi is expected to rebound today, but with the monthly PP at 0.7152 remaining intact and most of yesterday's losses being negated. Unfortunately, technical studies are unable to provide a confirmation for this outcome, as they keep giving mixed signals.  

Traders' Sentiment 
Bears grew in numbers over the day, as 70% of all open positions are now short (previously 64%). At the same time, only 53% of all pending orders are to sell the NZ Dollar, compared to 51% on Tuesday.
