Key Quotes
“We have held the same view since last Friday (16 Mar, spot at 0.7275) that “there is scope for NZD to probe the major 0.7175/85 support zone”. NZD finally moved to this support zone as it dropped to a low of 0.7170 early this morning”.
“While we have previously noted that a clear break of this support zone would indicate that NZD has moved into a bearish phase, we are less convinced now even though there is room for further weakness towards 0.7130”.
“0.7130 is a rather strong support and after the recent swift sell-off, oversold indicators suggest that this level may not be easy to crack. All that said, NZD is expected to continue to stay under pressure until there is a move back above 0.7260. On a shorter-term note, 0.7220 is already a strong resistance level”.
