Is the NZD Too Cheap?
Is the NZD Too Cheap?
Over the last 22 years from December 24 to December 31, the NZDUSD pair has gained over 90% of the time and has risen 20 times. The largest gain was over 4% in 2010. Will we see NZDUSD gain again this year despite the latest hawkish Fed meeting as the dot plot projected higher rates for longer for the US than the market was expecting?
Major Trade Risks: The main risk to this seasonal pattern would be strong risk-off trading that also results in USD strength or hawkish Fed re-pricing after the latest dot plot.

High-Risk Investment Warning: Contracts for Difference (‘CFDs’) are complex financial products that are traded on margin. Trading CFDs carries a high degree of risk. It is possible to lose all your capital. These products may not be suitable for everyone and you should ensure that you understand the risks involved. Seek independent expert advice if necessary and speculate only with funds that you can afford to lose. Please think carefully whether such trading suits you, taking into consideration all the relevant circumstances as well as your personal resources. We do not recommend clients posting their entire account balance to meet margin requirements. Clients can minimise their level of exposure by requesting a change in leverage limit.
