NZD Technical Analysis
Following the US Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) on Friday the US Dollar (USD) was able to gain ground against a basket of currencies in the Foreign Exchange (Forex) market. After analysing multiple currency pairs in the market it appears the New Zealand Dollar (NZD) is due for corrective gains. We are uncertain if the gains we are anticipating will be triggered by China CPI or the financial stability report that will be released by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) on Tuesday.
The charts appear to be providing a technical signal in NZDJPY, NZDUSD and NZDCHF. The entry in the Kiwi yen is ‘too perfect,’ which often means a larger stop is required. After studying the charts it appears that approximately +200 pips are required for the protective stop . Due to the fact a tighter stop can be used for NZDUSD and NZDCHF we are dismissing the entry in NZDJPY despite the decent risk reward ratio. We are unlikely to opt for both Kiwi Dollar and Kiwi Swiss unless a significant bearish gap is noted.

NZDUSD and NZDCHF Trading Strategies
The US Non- Farm Payrolls assisted the painting of a right-hand shoulder in NZDUSD daily chart. Although the price could still retrace lower towards 0.6470 before correcting higher it is a fairly neat entry.
NZDCHF recent dip lower markets the second bullish wave and also allows a neat entry in the market. The price may also retrace to 0.6470 before correcting higher. Kiwi Swiss gains were halted by the 44 Moving Average (MA, in blue), which forced the recent bearish retracement.
The technical structure of both NZDUSD and NZDCHF suggests corrective gains. We would prefer NZDCHF due to the positive interest that we will enjoy when the trades are rolled over but it may be down to the gap at the opening of the Forex market.
We are unlikely to opt for both trades as we have little desire of finding our place in a position where we are over exposed to the Kiwi, however, if the price posts a strong, bearish gap at the opening of the market we may choose to opt for both currency pairs.
