NZD/USD Price Forecast: Technical outlook
From a daily chart perspective, the pair trades sideways to downward biased after NZD/USD faced key resistance at 0.5994, with traders lacking the strength to reclaim the 0.60 handle. On its way south, the pair cleared the 50 and 100-day SMAs, each at 0.5952 and 0.5944, respectively, which turned key resistance levels at the time of writing.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) turned bearish two days ago. This means that sellers are in charge in the near-term.
For a bearish continuation, the first support would be 0.5900. A breach of the latter will expose the August 5 low of 0.5881, before testing the current month’s low of 0.5856. Conversely, the pair could shift upwards if traders reclaim 0.5952 and the 0.6000 figure.
