NZD/USD Price Analysis: A break above 0.6000 could approach 14-day EMA, 23.6% Fibonacci

  • NZD/USD tests the psychological level of 0.6000 on Monday.
  • The break above 0.6050 could lead the pair to navigate the area around the 14-day EMA and the 23.6% Fibonacci level.
  • The major level of 0.5950 could act as support, following the psychological support at 0.5900 level.

NZD/USD continues its losing streak for the third successive session as the US Dollar (USD) falls on the dovish sentiment surrounding the Federal Reserve's stance on the trajectory of interest rates, with market sentiment leaning towards the Fed initiating interest rate cuts starting in June. The pair has trimmed its intraday gains and hovers around the psychological level of 0.6000 during the European session on Monday.

The NZD/USD pair could find a key barrier lies at the major level of 0.6050. A break above this level could lead the pair to navigate the area around the 14-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of 0.6076 and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of 0.6086. A further movement could test the psychological level of 0.6100.

According to the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) analysis, a prevailing downward sentiment is indicated for the NZD/USD pair. This is evidenced by the MACD line positioned below the centerline and shows the divergence below the signal line, signaling a bearish trend. Furthermore, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is below the 50 level, providing additional confirmation of the bearish sentiment.

On the downside, the NZD/USD pair could find the key support at the major level of 0.5950. A break below the latter could put pressure on the pair to navigate further support at a psychological level of 0.5900.

AUD/USD flirts with 0.7000, lowest since early August amid bullish USD

AUD/USD hits a fresh low since early August during the Asian session on Friday and looks vulnerable near 0.7000 after breaking below the 200-day SMA overnight. Against the backdrop of the hawkish Fed, a two-day rally in oil prices revives inflation fears and continues to push US bond yields to multi-year highs. Adding to this, geopolitical risks lift the US Dollar to a two-month high, overshadowing RBA rate hike bets and weighing on the pair.

USD/JPY pulls back from three-week high after failing near 159.00

USD/JPY edges lower during the Asian session on Friday, stalling its recent strong move to a three-week high of 159.00 as Japanese Yen bears turn cautious amid intervention fears. Meanwhile, the US Dollar retains a strong bullish undertone as the Fed's hawkish outlook and oil-driven inflation fears continue to push US bond yields to multi-year peaks. Furthermore, the BoJ's dovish rate hike last week might cap JPY and support spot prices.

Gold treads water below $4,300

Gold grabs some buying attention and advances marginally at the end of the week, partially retracing the weekly decline, although it is still navigating below the key $4,300 mark per troy ounce. The fresh selling bias on the Greenback and the modest decline in US Treasury yields appear to support the humble advance in the precious metal.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin and Ethereum edge lower, XRP extends recovery as macro headwinds weigh

The broader cryptocurrency market is consolidating on Friday, with Bitcoin paring losses slightly above $84,000. Ethereum declines in tandem with BTC. Ripple (XRP), meanwhile, paints a different picture.



Fed vs BoJ: Both hiked. The market only believes one of them – and the chart shows which
The Federal Reserve (Fed) and the Bank of Japan (BoJ) have just done something remarkably similar. Both central banks raised interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) last week, both are confronting inflation risks, and both signal that future decisions will depend on incoming economic data.
