NZD/USD Technical Analysis: 0.6845 resistance again comes into play

The NZD/USD pair again heads to two-week-old trend-line resistance, at 0.6845 now, during early Thursday.
Should the pair manage to cross 0.6845, the horizontal line connecting late-January highs to early February lows, at 0.6870, may gain buyers’ attention.
During the additional upside past-0.6870, 0.6900 and the month’s high near 0.6945 can be targeted if holding long positions.
In case prices fail to hold recent recovery, 0.6785 and 0.6770 can provide nearby supports ahead of highlighting the 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement level of 0.6720 and the 0.6705 horizontal support.
If bears continue dominating price sentiments past-0.6705, 0.6670 and 0.6650 might offer intermediate halts during the plunge to 0.6620 and then to 0.6585.

EUR/USD remains bid, focus stays on 1.1900

EUR/USD has broken its two-day run of losses and is ticking modestly higher on Thursday, hovering around the 1.1880 area as the US Dollar struggles to find clear direction. Weekly Initial Jobless Claims rose more than expected, taking a bit of shine off the Greenback, but markets are largely in wait-and-see mode ahead of Friday’s US CPI release.

GBP/USD sticks to the bid bias, still below 1.3700

GBP/USD is trading with decent gains around 1.3650 on Thursday. Indeed, Cable is attempting to shake off the weakness seen earlier in the week amid another choppy session for the Greenback, while a run of disappointing UK data has so far failed to derail the pair’s tentative recovery.

Gold recedes slightly, trades below $5,100

Gold remains stuck in choppy trade on Thursday, deflating marginally just below the $5,100 mark per troy ounce as the US Dollar drifts without a clear trend. Softer US Treasury yields across the curve are offering some support, but with markets treading carefully ahead of Friday’s US CPI release, conviction remains limited and price action continues to look hesitant.
