NZD/USD Technical Analysis: Kiwi is eyeing pullback after creating Doji

Omkar Godbole FXStreet Contributor

The NZD/USD pair created a Doji candle with a long upper shadow yesterday, signaling bullish exhaustion. As a result, the currency pair could witness a minor pullback today.

Daily chart

A break below 0.6918 (low of yesterday's doji candle) would confirm a bearish doji reversal or short-term bull-to-beat trend change and allow a drop to the 100-day MA support of 0.6665.
A daily close above 0.6969 (Doji high) would signal a resumption of the rally from the Nov. 26 low of 0.6755.

4-hour chart

Over on the 4-hour chart, the relative strength index (RSI) has rolled over from the overbought territory and the MACD has turned bearish. Therefore, NZD/USD is more likely to explore levels below 0.6918.
