NZD/USD Price Forecast: Remains subdued near 0.5700, four-month lows

  • NZD/USD pair may retest the initial support at the four-month low of 0.5699.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index nears 34 signals ongoing selling pressure.
  • Initial resistance stands at the nine-day EMA around 0.5777.

NZD/USD extends its losing streak for the sixth successive day, trading around 0.5710 during the European hours on Tuesday. The technical analysis of the daily chart signals a persistent bearish bias as the pair is moving downwards within a descending channel pattern.

The near-term bias is bearish as the NZD/USD pair holds well below the nine-day and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), which cap recovery attempts and confirm a declining short-term trend. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits near 34 and extends lower from mid-range, signaling persistent selling pressure rather than exhaustion and aligning with the ongoing sequence of lower closes from the 0.5900 region.

The NZD/USD pair may find its initial support at the four-month low of 0.5699, recorded on March 30, followed by the lower boundary of the descending channel around 0.5660. Further declines would lead the pair to navigate the region around the 11-month low of 0.5580, recorded in November 2025.

On the upside, the primary resistance appears at the nine-day EMA of 0.5777, followed by the upper descending channel boundary around 0.5840 and the medium-term average at 0.5870. A break above this confluence resistance zone would cause the emergence of the bullish bias and lead the NZD/USD pair to explore the region around the monthly high of 0.5996, reached on March 2.

Warsh needs to restore his reputation
We were glad to see our deeply negative reaction to the Warsh press conference was not some personal peculiarity. Just about everybody in the financial press felt the same way. The consensus is building it’s not the Fed in the dog-house but only Warsh. Today the WSJ changed it tune and blasted Warsh—"the honeymoon is already over..”
9-3: Is the Federal Reserve’s vote tally Warsh's new forward guidance?
The rate did not move. Neither did the statement, and that’s the more interesting fact. Set the July 29 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) statement beside the one issued on June 17, and the two documents are identical apart from a single verb and a paragraph at the bottom naming three dissenters.
