NZD/USD Price Analysis: Edges higher past 0.6050 within immediate triangle but stays on bear’s radar

  • NZD/USD picks up bids within three-day-old descending triangle.
  • RSI’s rebound from oversold territory, bullish MACD signals suggest further corrective bounce of the Kiwi pair.
  • Buyers to stay skeptical below 0.6250 resistance confluence.

NZD/USD prints mild gains around 0.6050 inside a bullish triangle formation portrayed at the yearly low. In doing so, the Kiwi pair justifies the RSI (14) line’s recovery from the oversold territory, as well as the bullish MACD signals, during early Tuesday.

As a result, the pair buyers may witness the further recovery of the quote towards the stated triangle’s top line, surrounding 0.6070 at the latest, ahead of poking the 0.6100 round figure.

Following that, a convergence of the previous support line stretched from late April and a 13-day-old descending resistance line, around 0.6250 by the press time, will be in the spotlight as it holds the key for the NZD/USD bull’s dominance.

It should be noted that the mid-May swing low around 0.6180-85 can act as an intermediate halt between 0.6100 and 0.6250.

Alternatively, a downside break of the stated triangle’s bottom line of around 0.6040 can quickly fetch the quote towards the 0.6000 psychological magnet.

Should the NZD/USD pair remains weak past the 0.6000 round figure, it becomes vulnerable to testing the early October 2022 peak of 0.5815.

Overall, NZD/USD stays bearish unless breaking the 0.6250 key hurdle.

Economic outlook 2026-2027 in advanced countries: Solidity test

After a year marked by global economic resilience and ending on a note of optimism, 2026 looks promising and could be a year of solid economic performance. In our baseline scenario, we expect most of the supportive factors at work in 2025 to continue to play a role in 2026.

Crypto market outlook for 2026

Year 2025 was volatile, as crypto often is.  Among positive catalysts were favourable regulatory changes in the U.S., rise of Digital Asset Treasuries (DAT), adoption of AI and tokenization of Real-World-Assets (RWA).
