Given the absence of major data, coupled with the kiwi traders entering New Year’s Eve holiday, buyers will keep targeting an area including highs marked since April 12, near 0.6783/92, during the days to come.
Alternatively, a two-week-old rising trend line and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of March-September fall, around 0.6660/55 offers strong downside support to the pair.
In a case where sellers conquer the near-term key support confluence, December 13 high near 0.6635 and 50% Fibonacci retracement around 0.6570 can please the sellers ahead of welcoming 200-day EMA level of 0.6533.
