Fundamental Overview:

NZD/USD is expected to trade with risks skewed higher. It is underpinned by the Kiwi demand on buoyant NZD/JPY cross amid the positive risk sentiment, Kiwi demand on buoyant NZD/CHF and soft EUR/NZD, GBP/NZD crosses. But NZD/USD gains are tempered by the positive USD sentiment and lower Fonterra Co-Operative Group Ltd's forecast for payouts to farmers and Kiwi sales on rebounding AUD/NZD cross.

Technical Comment:
Daily chart is still negative-biased as MACD is bearish, stochastics stays suppressed at the oversold zone, 5 and 15-day moving averages are falling, although inside-day-range pattern was completed on Wednesday.
