Daily Analysis
AUD/USD we are short at 6870/80, with stops above 6890. Next target is the 200 day moving average at 6910/13. A break above here (& weekly close above tomorrow for confirmation) is an important buy signal.
Our shorts at 6870/80 target 6870/65 & first support at 6860/55 but we could reach better support at 6840/30 with a low for the day likely. On further losses take profit on all remaining shorts at 6810/00.
NZD/USD higher at last to 6570/75 & 6600. We topped exactly here on overbought conditions. Shorts are risky but we are testing a 20 month trend line so the risk could be worth taking, with stops above 6614. A break higher is an important buy signal initially targeting 6650/55.
If you try shorts, look for 6580/70 & 6555/50. Strong support at 6540/30 for profit taking.
