NZD/USD Technical Analysis: Trading above 0.6800 ahead of New Zealand employment data

  • NZD/USD is trading in the middle of its daily range ahead of the New Zealand employment data which is set to be released at 22:45 GMT. Lots of volatility can be expected as the data is only released once per quarter.
  • On the daily chart NZD/USD has found support at the 21-period simple moving average suggesting some building bullish momentum. However, bulls would need to breakout above 0.6852 July 26 high and 0.6859 July 9 high to start to create a higher high.  
  • To the downside, support is likely located near the 0.6791 July 30 low and 0.6726 July 27 low.
  • New Zealand jobs report preview: Favorable conditions for NZD/USD to move up.
