Any New Zealand based trader?

If you actually live in NZ (or Aus) then unless you have a desire to follow our namesake into a nocturnal lifestyle I don't think European markets are optimal. Asian markets including HSI, SGXNK, STW and a number of bonds are easier to construct a working day around and very tradable. 
I like that number so much that I'm tempted to make this my last ever post on ET. Hmmm?

yes
Isn't the NZD a little overheated here against the USD?
Thinking of a major short here.

Very tough because of the time zone to trade US markets. European markets are ok for half a session. I think the Dax opens, for example, at 6pm NZ time. Quite civilised really.
US markets are a nightmare. I have been here for the last 6 months in Auckland and looking forward to returning to London where I can feel more alive (less like a zombie) in trading the ES.
Cheers.
