NZD/JPY Price Analysis: Bullish strength persists, additional corrective pullbacks are possible

The NZD/JPY tallied daily gains on Tuesday’s session and rose to 91.78. The pair maintains a solid footing above all main Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), which may signal additional strength despite intra-day pull-backs seen during the American session. Indicators remain strong on the daily chart but the hourly ones are losing traction as they are correcting overbought conditions.

On the daily chart, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for the NZD/JPY has been trending positively within the positive territory. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram also displays increasing green bars, indicating bullish momentum.

On the hourly chart, the RSI shows a reading of 68 but points south which reveals that buyers seem to be taking a breather as they hit overbought conditions earlier in the session. The hourly MACD, similar to the daily chart, also prints green bars, suggesting an ongoing upward trajectory.

Looking at the bigger picture, the NZD/JPY remains favourably positioned above its relevant Simple Moving Average (SMA) metrics, these being the 20, 100, and 200-day time horizons. However, ahead of the Asian session the pair may see further pullbacks as indicators start to lose traction on the hourly chart. One the other hand, the daily RSI and MACD remain strong and unless the bears conquer the 20-day SMA, the outlook will remain positive.
