The short-term price momentum is stronger as the NZD/USD pair is positioned above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA). Additionally, the bullish bias strengthens as the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains above the 50 mark.
On the upside, the NZD/USD pair may find its primary barrier at the psychological level of 0.6000, followed by the upper boundary of the ascending channel around 0.6010.
