FX Forecast: Exchange rate activity suggests central bank exhaustion – ForexLive


In today’s forex forecast video, we discuss the outlook ahead for USD/JPY, NZD/USD, Fed rate hike bets and USD, along with Ryan Littlestone, Director at ForexLive, and Nick Batsford, CEO at Tip TV.

Highlights:

USD/JPY - “Area between 50% and the 61.8% Fibo always the big one. The current talk in the markets is ‘will the BOJ intervene’ or ‘can they intervene’. Its pretty much poised to extend losses given the consistency of the downtrend on the charts.”

NZD/USD – “We got a 30 pip move after the RBNZ rate cut followed by a sharp rally. That’s what is happening with central banks these days.. minor drop in currency followed by sharp moves. The action reflectc central bank exhaustion. Next Fed rate hike likely to be met with similar reaction (in USD).”
