NZD/USD bears keep the reins for the eighth consecutive day as they refresh the yearly low to 0.5902 amid early Thursday.

In doing so, the Kiwi pair justifies the previous week’s downside break of the 0.5985 support comprising May’s low while poking the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of October 2022 to February 2023 upside, near 0.5900 by the press time, also known as the golden Fibonacci ratio.

It’s worth noting, however, that the RSI (14) line hits the oversold territory and joins the key Fibonacci support around 0.5900 to challenge the NZD/USD bears.

Also acting as a downside filter is a descending support line from early March, close to 0.5885 by the press time.

In a case where the Kiwi pair drops below 0.5885, the early October swing high near 0.5815 may act as the final defense of the bulls.

Alternatively, an upside clearance of the support-turned-resistance line surrounding 0.5985, closely followed by the 0.6000 psychological magnet, becomes necessary for the NZD/USD buyers to return to the desk.

Even so, a downward-sloping resistance line from July 14, around 0.6045 at the latest, can challenge the run-up before pushing back the bears.

AUD/USD pulls back from monthly high but holds above 0.7000

AUD/USD retreats from the monthly high set earlier this Thursday, sliding back to 0.7000 during the Asian session as a further escalation of tensions in the Middle East undermines the risk-sensitive Aussie. However, recent hawkish comments from RBA officials could support the Australian Dollar. Furthermore, the prevailing US Dollar selling bias, despite Fed hike bets and geopolitical uncertainties, could limit losses for the pair.

USD/JPY declines to a one-week low; eyes trading range support near 157.50 on weaker USD

USD/JPY drops to a one-week low during Thursday’s Asian session, with bears now awaiting a break below multi-week range support near mid-157.00s before placing fresh bets amid a broadly weaker US Dollar. Despite bets for a December Fed rate hike and Middle East jitters, the recent decline in US bond yields keeps USD depressed near a three-week low. Moreover, hawkish BoJ expectations and intervention risks underpin the Japanese Yen, further weighing on the currency pair.

Gold sinks to over two-month low as higher-for-longer interest rate expectations weigh

Gold (XAU/USD) struggles below $4,100 on Thursday as the US Dollar (USD) rebounds, while energy-driven inflation concerns from Middle East tensions reinforce expectations that interest rates will remain elevated longer.

The estimates keep falling: Why Bitcoin's quantum countdown is accelerating

The threat that Artificial Intelligence (AI) and quantum computing pose to Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrencies in general is no longer a matter of if hardware will catch up; it is a matter of when.

The Bank of England just got its clearest reason to hike. Here's what it's really watching

UK inflation as measured by the CPI accelerated to 3.5% YoY in September, up from 3.1% in August, according to the Office for National Statistics. This is the highest level since October 2025, exceeding economists' expectations of 3.4% and pushing inflation further from the BoE's 2% target.

What November 3 means for the Fed's rate path and the US Dollar

The USD faces a decisive period ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. While markets anticipate another interest rate increase from the Fed in December, the battle for control of Congress could reshape fiscal policy expectations and, indirectly, the path of US monetary policy in 2027.
