NZD/USD Technical Analysis: Kiwi losing steam below 0.7050, starting to break down from wedge formation

NZD/USD broke below the ascending trendline of the rising wedge. Kiwi is currently supported at the 100-period simple moving average on the hourly time-frame.
A failure by the bulls to break above the 0.7050 resistance might see more sideways to down price action in the near-future.
