NZD/USD Price Forecast: Technical outlook
Price action shows buyers reluctancy to drive NZD/USD past the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.5959. Although momentum as depicted in the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bullish, it has turned slightly flattish. Hence, further sideways trading lies ahead, unless the release of US CPI data on Thursday rocks the boat.
If NZD/USD climbs past the 100-day SMA, the next resistance will be the August 13 peak at 0.5996, followed by the July 24 cycle high at 0.5059. On the other hand, if the pair slides below 0.5900, the first support would be the 20-day SMA at 0.5886, ahead of the 200-day SMA at 0.5836.
