Forex Commentary: AUDUSD and NZDUSD looking weak, 10th November 2011

Trading Setups / Chart in Focus:

AUDUSD

The AUDUSD closed today basically unchanged as price attempted to rally but lost steam into the New York close. We are seeing weakness as the dominant theme in this market right now and will look to sell rallies back to resistance near the 8 / 21 day EMA layer pending price action confirmation.

NZDUSD

The Kiwi / Dollar is looking pretty weak as we can price has recently broke and closed below support near 0.7900 and the 8 / 21 day EMAs are crossed lower and diverging. We would look to sell on rallies into resistance. Watch the dynamic resistance layer between the 8 /21 day EMAs around 0.7900 for price action sell setups if price moves higher in the near-term.
