NZD/USD prior analysis, H1 chart
NZD/USD live update
The price is deteriorating as the bulls start to throw in the towel leaving plenty of hourly structure behind them as the bears start to carve out a bearish case for the end of the week. The bears will need to commit around the 38.2% at this juncture, however, or this will likely move into a phase of messy consolidation for the session ahead. A move below the 61.8% Fibo, however, could be significant and open a move to mitigate the price imbalance in fast consesion to the 78.6% ratio.
