AUD/NZD: Today the key focus is 1.1624 [Video]
|AUD/NZD moved lower yesterday, in line with the broader strength of the NZD across the majors. Today the key focus is 1.1624, the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement, which acts as an important swing level for the market.
If the cross fails to break and hold above 1.1624, then weakness is likely to resume, targeting 1.1545 and 1.1515.
However, a clean break above 1.1624 — ideally on a closing basis — opens the path toward 1.1695, the recent high. It’s worth noting that this cross is trading at its highest levels in over a decade. Pre‑2014, AUD/NZD was significantly higher, but the long‑term trend since then has been one of steady weakening.
Right now, the latest move lower still looks correctional, so the preferred bias remains from the short side.
