NZD/USD Bounce May Continue Post Morning Star Formation




Talking Points



  • NZD/USD Technical Strategy: Sidelines Preferred


  • Morning Star formation leads recovery in prices


  • Break of resistance at 0.8600 opens further gains


The Kiwi has broken above critical resistance at 0.8600 in recent trading with the pair forming a Morning Star pattern. While admittedly a little lopsided, the bullish candlestick formation suggests an extended recovery for the pair. A push above nearby resistance at 0.8635 would open an advance on the 2014 highs near 0.8740.
