NZD/USD Technical Analysis: Fades a knee-jerk bullish spike back closer to weekly tops

   •  The pair faded a knee-jerk bullish spike back closer to weekly tops, albeit remained well bid for the second consecutive session on Wednesday.

   •  A rebound in the NZ business confidence in September was largely negated by larger than expected NZ trade deficit and exerted some downward pressure.

   •  The pair has been retracing along a short-term descending trend-channel formation on the intraday chart and is currently placed at a confluence support.

   •  The mentioned support marks the lower end of the trend-channel and 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the up-move over the past two trading session. 

   •  A convincing break below might now turn the pair vulnerable to resume with last week's corrective slide from the 0.6700 handle, or over three-week tops.
