AUD/USD: Focus Turns Lower. Immediate focus now turns to the Mar 18 low with the 21-DMA ($1.0339) noted just below and the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the $1.0117-1.0497 move noted just above at $1.0352. A close back above yesterday’s high is now needed to see focus turn higher once more, but it appears that correcting O/B daily tech studies will continue to weigh for the time being. A close below initial support would see the 2013 lows become the overall target.

NZD/USD: Holding Above Initial Support For Now. The pair continues to hold above the initial support noted at $0.8337 and we will continue to look for a close below the Mar 25 high to relieve bullish pressure, while back below the $0.8292 support is needed to see focus return to 2013 lows. The 21 day upper Bolli continues to head higher and potential for spikes above remains until a close below initial support is seen.

AUD/JPY: Upper Bollinger Band Turns Lower. The cross has dipped back towards the lower end of the recently defining Jpy97.60-99.96 range dipping below the 21-DMA in the process. A close below the Mar 18 low remains needed to shift immediate focus back to the Mar 1 low and then the key Jpy92.50 support from Jan 16 below. The 21 day upper Bollinger band is now heading lower which remains a concern for those looking for a break higher.

USD/KRW: Bouncing Back Towards Initial Resistance. The 200-DMA confirmed its significance as support with the pair continuing to bounce back towards initial resistance following Tuesday’s test. Correcting overbought daily tech studies remain a concern but while the Mar 14 support remains in play retests of the 50% Fibonacci retracement level remain targeted with a test of the rising daily channel top targeted. Back below the Mar 14 support sees immediate focus turn to retests of Krw1077-82.

USD/SGD: Remains Heavy. USD/SGD continues to find support just below the Sgd1.2400 level but we will continue to look for a close back above the 21-DMA to see focus return to 2013 highs and then the July 12 highs above. While the 21-DMA caps potential exists for a deeper correction although layers of support in the Sgd1.2370-90 region appear to be prompting some buying for now. Overall the pair looks heavy with spikes below the lower Bollinger expected to commence.
