NZDUSD Technical Analysis: Technical Analysis
Moving Averages: Prices are trading below the major moving averages, indicating negative pressure on the pair and support for the continuation of the downtrend, despite the current upward shift. However, trading below these averages still indicates the continuation of the downtrend in the short term.
- MACD Indicator: The MACD indicator is pointing to a negative trend, reflecting the weakness of the downward momentum. Although the current movement indicates a temporary upward shift, the indicator remains in the negative territory, indicating that the general trend may remain bearish unless there is a significant change in momentum.
Economic Influences:
The US dollar has weakened significantly after the release of some economic data that contradicted expectations, most notably the US unemployment rate report, which came out worse than expected. This weakness in the US labor market data led to a decline in the strength of the dollar, which helped improve the movement of the NZD/USD pair and supported it to temporarily shift from a bearish trend to an upward trend.
