NZD/USD hourly chart
On the hourly chart, NZD/USD has been consolidating near 0.7030 a key psychological level. The price faces rejection near the downside trend line, which is extending from Friday’s high near the 0.7070 region. The formation of a Doji candle indicates a state of indecision among investors as of now.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator trades below the midline with a negative bias. A sustained downside below 0.7030 would ask for weekly lows near 0.7000 and the next would be the lows of April 1st near the 0.7045 region.
On the flip side, a break above the descending trend line will meet the 0.7045 horizontal resistance zone. Further, bulls will keep their eyes on Friday’s high near 0.7070, making it easier for them to climb toward the top of March 23 near the 0.7170 area.
