Long Kiwi setup looking for a revival in risk appetite

Diupdate
The New Zealand dollar is a binary bet on how investor risk appetite evolves this week. Having plunged over the past fortnight before bouncing off horizontal support, a setup is in place to look for a reversal. We just need risk assets to oblige.

To reinforce how influential risk assets have been on the Kiwi, its rolling daily correlation with Nasdaq futures sits at 0.92 over the past month. With copper futures it’s an even stronger 0.95 and 0.89 with USD/JPY. It’s deeply negative with the VIX at -0.88, indicating that when volatility spikes, Kiwi usually tumbles.

That suggests Microsoft’s earnings report and speculation before the Fed are likely to heavily influence NZD/USD over the next 24 hours.

NZD/USD screens as decent long setup from a risk-reward perspective, oversold yet still able to bounce off .59593 at the first time of testing, an important level that has provided support in the past. While no guarantee this time will be the same, when RSI has sat at these kinds of levels over reccent years, it has often occurred around a market bottom.

Those taking on the long trade could buy above .58593 with a stop below for protection. Some selling may be encountered at .5900 but there isn’t any real visible resistance levels evident until we get back towards .5985 of .60491.
