EUR/NZD fully informs any long on drop strategies as price holds above 1.6848 and 1.6883 however 1.6910 becomes the target and above 1.6910 evolves into a short only scenario. EUR/NZD is set and ready to rise back to its last reported point at 1.7082 but this assumes NZD/USD falls much lower in correction mode.
