The Kiwi was driven by strong upside momentum on Thursday as a result of which it tested the 0.7270 mark late in the evening. This area coincides with the 61.80% Fibo retracement. This peak was followed by a correction southwards, strengthened by the US CPI and Retail Sales data published at 1330GMT.
From theoretical point of view, the Kiwi should approach the 50.0% Fibo retracement at 0.7170. However, the rate still faces the 55– and 100-hour SMAs that could limit sudden price declines.
Two scenarios are possible. First, the Kiwi might reverse from 0.7220 and return near the 61.80% Fibo. Second, a breakout of the 55-hour SMA could result in a test of the most senior and junior channels circa 0.7210.
