On Monday we noted a combination of technical & fundamental reasons why we believed NZDUSD could move lower:
NZDUSD may have put in a medium-term top near 0.8160 RBNZ could steal the RBA’s limelight tonight
Sure enough, this is precisely what has occurred as NZDUSD presently trades more than 300 pips below this week’s high, due to the ominous technical backdrop – See Monday’s Key Technical Bullets, as well as a speech delivered by RBNZ Governor Wheeler on Monday.
Key bullets from Governor Wheeler on Aug. 20th:
* Two largest forces influencing NZ economy: Over-valued exchange rate & over-valued housing market * Exchange rate is over-valued relative to what would be sustainable long-term * Real exchange rate is about 16% above 15-year average * Main concern is rate of house price increases & potential risks associated to financial system/broader economy * In April IMF suggested NZ house prices were overvalued by ~25% & OECD expressed similar view * Conventional mechanism to help restrain housing demand would be to raise the Official Cash Rate (OCR) * OCR increases in near-term risks sharp NZD appreciation & would put further pressure on NZ export industries * RBNZ introduced speed limits on high loan-to-value ratio (LVR) lending, beginning on Oct. 2013 * Macro-Prudential measures provide RBNZ with greater flexibility on timing & magnitude of future OCR increases
NZDUSD potential levels of support:
0.7765 – Trendline support drawn from July low 0.7735 – August 2013 low 0.7715 – Channel support drawn from Nov. 2011 low 0.7685 – 2013 Low
котировки на графіках 3 тижні тому : EUR/AUD * EUR/CAD * EUR/NZD 1,4825 - 1,3669 - 1,6746 поточні курси товарних крос-курсів євро : 1,4850 - 1,4010 - 1,7060
варто звернути увагу на нещодавню корекцію в декілька фігур
австралієць пішов у відкат з базовим доляром в умовах надлишкового технічної продажу - це поки що й утримує його від нових багаторічних мінімумів, решта товарних кросів продовжили свій рух в межах висхідного тренду EUR (низхідного у парі з USD)
The short-term double-top calls for further weakness (by MIG Bank).
AUD/USD has broken its support at 0.9058, after failing to decisively break the resistance at 0.9221. The implied short-term double-top calls for further weakness towards 0.8895. An hourly support lies at 0.8920 (07/08/2013 low). Hourly resistances can be found at 0.9058 (intraday high) and 0.9103 (19/08/2013 low).
In the longer-term, the break of the strong support at 0.9388 (04/10/2011 low) opens the way for a further medium-term decline. However, we keep in mind that if the current recovery phase were to gain traction and decisively break the key resistance at 0.9345, we would have to reassess our outlook. Other resistances are at 0.9500 (psychological level) and 0.9666 (14/06/2013 high). раніше цей шпекуль послідовно тримав продаж під 1,0180, добавляючи у короток на відскоках, часом навіть агресивно на селл-стоп наказах
збирається перевертатися не він один ? Await fresh signal.
