Overview:

NZD/USD is expected to trade in lower range. It is supported by the kiwi demand on NZD/JPY cross amid reduced risk aversion and hawkish Reserve Bank of New Zealand's monetary policy stance. But NZD/USD gains are tempered by the positive dollar sentiment and concerns about the growth outlook in China; the kiwi sales on buoyant AUD/NZD cross. Daily chart is mixed as 5- and 15-day moving averages are advancing, but stochastics is bearish near overbought zone.
