NZD/USD Price Forecast: Remains tepid near 0.6050, two-month lows

  • NZD/USD could test the immediate support around a two-month low at 0.6039 level.
  • The daily-chart analysis suggests the short-term market bias is bearish for the pair.
  • A break above the immediate resistance at the nine-day and 50-day EMAs could trigger a shift toward a bullish bias.

The NZD/USD loses ground after two days of gains, trading around 0.6060 during Monday’s European hours. The analysis of the daily chart shows that the pair remains below the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which suggests the short-term market bias is bearish.

Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) consolidates below the 30 level, reinforcing the current bearish sentiment. Furthermore, the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) remains below the 50-day EMA, highlighting weakness in the short-term price trend for the pair.

On the downside, the NZD/USD pair tests immediate support around a two-month low at 0.6039 level, which was recorded on October 16, followed by the psychological level of 0.6000. A break below this level could exert downward pressure on the pair to re-test the area around the "pullback support" near the 0.5850 level.

In terms of resistance, the immediate resistance appears at the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) around the level of 0.6089, followed by the 50-day EMA at 0.6146 level. A break above the latter could cause the emergence of the short-term bullish bias, potentially allowing the NZD/USD pair to target the psychological level of 0.6200.

AUD/USD drops to two-week low, further below 0.7000 after RBA's less hawkish rate hike

AUD/USD drifts lower for the second straight day on Tuesday, hitting a fresh two-week low during the Asian session after the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) widely expected 25 bps rate hike. The decision was far from unanimous, with three members preferring to hold rates at 4.60%. This tempers expectations of further tightening, which, along with modest US Dollar strength, weighs on the currency pair.





USD/JPY fails near 159.00 amid weak USD, intervention risks

USD/JPY edges lower during Tuesday’s Asian session, reversing part of the previous day's gains to 158.00 as the US Dollar remains depressed amid hopes for Iran diplomacy and ahead of US midterm elections. Meanwhile, intervention risks support the Japanese Yen, though the uncertainty over the timing of the next BoJ rate hike caps gains. This keeps the pair confined within a familiar range and warrants caution before placing directional bets.


Gold struggles below $3,950 amid Fed hike bets, ahead of US midterm elections

Gold weakens further below $3,950 during the Asian session, reversing part of the previous day's recovery from a one-year low set last week. Data released on Monday showed that US manufacturing sector business activity expanded for the 10th straight month in October. The Institute for Supply Management's Manufacturing PMI came in higher than consensus estimates and rose to 55.5 in October from 54.5 in the previous month. This reaffirms hawkish US Federal Reserve expectations, which along with rebounding US bond yields, prompt fresh selling around the non-yielding yellow metal.

Cardano extends losses as sellers stay in control

Cardano (ADA) extends correction, trading below $0.189 on Tuesday after losing key support zone the previous day. Mixed derivatives data and cautious on-chain metrics continue to weigh on bullish sentiment, while weakening technical indicators suggest further downside risks for ADA.

What a split Congress means for the US Dollar

The United States is going to the polls on Tuesday, and much is at stake. The mid-term elections mean the renovation of roughly one-third of the Senate and all 435 of the House seats. Additionally, special elections in Florida and Ohio will be held to fill the seats vacated by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance.

The 2% inflation target came from a throwaway remark. It now moves trillions
The Federal Reserve's 2% inflation goal grew out of an off-the-cuff remark by a New Zealand politician in 1988. Bond investors still price long-term US debt as if 2% holds, so a change in how the Fed measures inflation would move markets.
