Yes, well done Arco, faded in nicely. Thinking top is "in" now at .7463, and in sell rally mode from here.
Greenspan sang on behalf of the fat lady yesterday, and his cunningly sculptured wording re inflation will hammer home the USD advantage over the next little while.
As I said a few days ago somewhere else on this site, once the carry trades start unwinding, it'll be carnage city for the Kiwi. I think a break below .7150 is confirmation enough that the rally has turned earlier than (some) expected.
Would be interested to see your chart updated - must have confirmed your bearish gartley. EUR will be the same I suspect (I have faded shorts in EUR from last week thankfully, but thinking the KIWI shorts will get more bang for your buck, as there will be a lot of cross selling of Kiwi,AUD, etc agst majors as well, not just USD

US interest rates rising, NZ interest rates stalling.... differential converging. bearish?
NZ GDP growth slowing. bearish?
NZ current account deficit widening. bearish?
Tightening monetary policy. bearish?

Short term we could see a minor retracement
soon. The uptrend line + fibs are close by.
But once NZD breaks the line......watch out below.
IMO look for a minor reversal around 7141
down to 7080. (To complete EW 3 perhaps).
Miner....all signs appear that way presently.
Xerof...you will find more of my charts at
Tacticaltrader.com - Cable thread may be of
interest to you.
(There is no uploading device on ST, which
complicates posting images).

All of the above are fairly clearly in play - the only other key driver has been the strong rise in commodities, and although we have seen some weakness of late, I'm not at all CERTAIN that we are going to see a collapse in the CRB index. Does anyone have a chart of the CRB? (I have just given my Reuters service back, so am missing my fav charts at the moment)
IMO, the USD has gained the upper hand in the short term, and we should now see a cleanout of positioning, esp if hedge funds unwind their (very) long specs in commodities, spread trades, and carry trades aggressively. So maybe we see a 2 or 3 Q rally for the dollar, then back to weakness late this year/early next. To illustrate - EUR down to 1.15 area, then up to new highs, 1.45/1.50?
E&OE - as usual it won't be a straight line.....these markets tend to turn on a dime, as we saw Monday/Tuesday, so....
