• AUD/NZD underpinned by hawkish RBA cut
• RBA cuts 25bps, but rhetoric remains cautious
• Meanwhile, RBNZ is f/c to cut 50bps - widening rate differentials
• However, AUD/NZD nears key resistance at 1.1150-80
• Break above can embolden bulls to push for 1.13
• But a false break (failure to close above) would likely mark a turning point
• Thus provide a warning signal for bulls
• FX options - NZD expectations as big RBNZ rate cut looms
