The Aussie dollar is making a massive head and shoulder spanning months. The right shoulder is now forming at .9500 to .9550 zone. A break above .9650 means the right shoulder is negated. Till that time, the AUDUSD has a right shoulder with a measured target at 100 DMA at .9260.
Similar arguments to NZDUSD but the right shoulder has not yet fully formed and hence give it some time. The fundamental case against NZDUSD is difficult to envisage given the Central bank is hawkish and has been talking about rate hikes. But it is not the first time a currency has declined even after a rate hike or talks about rate hikes.The technical picture on NZD is similar to Aussie. There is a wide head and shoulders being made with right shoulder between .8400 and .8500. However above .8500, the H&S would be negated. The measured target will be the 100 DMA at .8060.
EURAUD continues to consolidate between 1.4100 and 1.4550. EURAUD needs to resolve this week as the 25 DMA is starting to bend down and hence if it intends to continue higher, we need to see resolution.
