The NZD/USD pair saw a 0.25% loss on Friday’s sessing and continues exhibiting a significant bearish tendency. Both short-term and long-term outlooks suggest the prevalence of sellers, which may signal that the pair is bound for further downside.

On the daily chart, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates a bearish trend. It lies deep in negative terrain and edged near oversold territory. The escalating red bars on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram align with this bearish stance, augmenting this downturn prediction.

On the hourly chart, the RSI also points south standing below 50 while the MACD exhibits dwindling green bars, indicative of reduced buying momentum.

NZD/USD hourly chart

From a wider viewpoint, NZD/USD presently exhibits a clear bearish trend, given its position below the Simple Moving Average (SMA) for 20, 100, and 200-day periods. However, as indicators approach oversold conditions, the pair may stage a corrective rebound which could give the buyers a chance to reclaim the 20-day SMA. In the meantime, movements below these levels would leave the trend bearish.
