24-HOUR VIEW: “We noted last Friday that ‘momentum indicators are mostly flat, and we continue to expect NZD to trade in a range, probably between 0.6040 and 0.6080.’ NZD then traded in a narrower range of 0.6055/0.6079. Momentum indicators remain flat, and we continue to expect NZD to trade in a range, likely between 0.6055 and 0.6090.”

Momentum is beginning to slow, and the likelihood of NZD declining further to 0.6005 has decreased.”
