Pair's Outlook
The New Zealand Dollar succeeded in stabilising above the tough cluster around 0.6550 yesterday and is now aiming for the up-trend. Boosted by higher oil prices, the Kiwi ignored the up-trend and the 0.66 major level, precipitously rushing towards the second resistance cluster around 0.6640, namely the Bollinger band and the weekly R2. This is likely to prevent the NZD/USD from edging higher today, as technical studies retain mixed signals. As 55-day SMA's crossing of the 100-day one predicted this rally, which could extend until the pair reaches the October high of 0.6896.
Traders' Sentiment
The gap between longs and shorts is now only 8% points, with bulls in the majority. There are now 64% of orders to sell the NZ Dollar.
