NZD/USD Price Forecast: Trades near 0.5950 with a bearish bias


  • NZD/USD moves downwards within a descending channel pattern, reinforcing a bearish bias.
  • The nine-day EMA continues to stay below the 14-day EMA, adding to the prevailing bearish sentiment.
  • The pair could target the lower boundary of the descending channel around the 0.5930 level.

The NZD/USD pair remains tepid for the fourth consecutive session, trading around 0.5970 during Wednesday's European session. Analysis of the daily chart shows a downward movement within a descending channel, indicating a bearish bias.

Adding to this outlook, the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) remains below the 14-day EMA, further supporting the bearish sentiment for the NZD/USD pair. Short-term momentum appears weak, suggesting continued downward pressure.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI), a key momentum indicator, currently hovers just above the 30 mark. A drop below this level would signal an oversold condition, potentially pointing to an upcoming upward correction for the NZD/USD pair.

On the downside, the NZD/USD pair could target the lower boundary of the descending channel around the 0.5930 level. A decisive break below this support might lead the pair toward the "pullback support" near 0.5850.

For resistance, the initial obstacle is the upper boundary of the descending channel, close to the nine-day Exponential Moving Average around 0.6006, followed by the 14-day EMA at 0.6033. A sustained move above these EMAs could shift the NZD/USD pair to a short-term bullish stance, potentially aiming for the psychological level of 0.6100.
