New Zealand rate decision: Wednesday, 21:00. Similar to their Australian counterparts, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand has not altered interest rates since 2016 and no change to the 1.75% Cash Rate is likely now. The recent jobs report showed a healthy growth in employment, a new mandate for the RBNZ, but a disappointing increase in wages. A slow pace of pay rises implies a slow pace of rising inflation. It will be interesting to hear if the central bank discusses trade concerns and also its new mandate.

Update: Today's candle is Doji which is a reversal candle. This supports our negative scenario. As we can see on the daily chart that the pair managed to breakthrough the downside of the symmetrical triangle shown on that chart. This is considered to be a bearish signal but it is not the time to go short yet. We still have a strong support level at 1.1515 so after this level is broken, we can go short targeting the level of 1.14 during the week.

  • GBPUSD

 

Update: Waiting for the pair to show up some evidence above the support levels.. As we can see on the daily chart that the pair is traded below a broken uptrend line and it may continue going down to reach the level of 1.29 during the week. Depending on the evidence that will show up there, we can decide what should be done at that time.

Update: Still traded below the downtrend line. As could be seen on the four hours timeframe that the pair is traded below a strong resistance level that is the downtrend line shown on the chart in red. As a result of the consistent trading below it, the pair might continue going down to reach the level of 1200 during the week.

  • AUDUSD

 

Update: The pair is very close to the resistance level of 0.7480 so we will have to wait for some bearish evidence. The daily timeframe shows that the pair is ranging between two strong levels: The support level of 0.7324 and the resistance level of 0.7480 so if the pair shows up bearish evidence below the resistance level, we can go short targeting the level of 0.7324 during the week.

 

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:

  • GBPJPY

 

Update: The pair is about to reach the support levels mentioned in the report. As could be seen on the daily chart that the pair is traded above a strong support level that is 143 so we believe that as long as the pair is traded above it, it is highly recommended to go long targeting the level of 146 during the week. This is conditioned by the continuation of trading above the level of 143.

We are bullish as long as the pair is traded above the level of 143.
