NZD/USD daily chart
We have a possible downside continuation for the rest of the year on the cards with 0.6250 eyed. This ties in with the bearish bias in the US Dollar:
DXY has been pressured below the 104 mark on Wednesday but is holding losses after the Bank of Japan unexpectedly raised the upper limit of its tolerance band on 10-year government bonds to 0.5% from 0.25%.
