7 Secrets to Trading Success

US Economy: So far the US has printed mostly better than expected numbers in the month of October. The elections play a massive role in the US dollar strength this month. As long as the polls are in favor of a Hillary Clinton victory in November, we could expect the US dollar to continue its road of strength.

An negative “October surprise” for Hillary could pressure the US dollar.

New Zealand Economy: As the Kiwis head into Spring, we could expect growth in agricultur and retail sales. Monday night’s PMI is the first all-important economic event of the month for New Zealand and it is highly anticipated. Consumer Price Index is expected to have lowered from Q2, from 0.4% to 0.1%. Since the expectations are already quiet low, a worse than expected outcome could weigh on Mr. Kiwi.

Trading Strategy – NZDUSD Bearish Engulfing

Bearish Scenario: If you have been following my signals and have high risk tolerance, you probably are already in a bearish NZD/USD trade targeting either 0.70 or 0.6850 depending on your risk tolerance.

If not, it’s not too late! Wait for the Kiwi PMI results and develop your strategy accordingly.

Bullish Scenario: At this point a medium-term bullish scenario requires a break above the Ichimoku cloud and the pivot of 0.7230

Here are Invest Diva’s calculations for important NZD/USD  approximate levels to keep an eye on from a long-term perspective:

Support Levels Turning Point Resistance Levels
06850 0.7230 0.7230
0.70 0.7320 0.7530
