NZD/USD Price Analysis: Pair trades steady near 0.5900 with bullish bias ahead of Asia
- NZD/USD trades around the 0.5900 zone after a quiet Wednesday European session.
- Mixed momentum signals but moving averages reinforce the bullish tone.
- Support seen at 0.5930 and 0.5908; resistance stands at 0.5969.
The NZDUSD pair held steady near the 0.5900 mark on Wednesday, posting a marginal daily gain as traders positioned ahead of the Asian session. The pair continues to consolidate in a tight range after recent upward momentum, suggesting a pause rather than a reversal.
From a technical standpoint, the outlook remains broadly constructive. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicates a buy signal, while the Relative Strength Index hovers around 62, signaling neutral momentum. Meanwhile, the Average Directional Index near 26 highlights a modest trend strength without strong conviction. On the downside, the Stochastic RSI Fast suggests overbought conditions and flashes a mild sell signal.
Despite the mixed short-term oscillators, the moving average setup is clearly bullish. The 20-day simple moving average at 0.5800, alongside the 100-day and 200-day SMAs at 0.5713 and 0.5886 respectively, all point upward. Additional short-term support is backed by the 10-day EMA at 0.5908 and the 10-day SMA at 0.5930.
Key support levels are aligned at 0.5930, 0.5908, and 0.5886. Resistance, meanwhile, is seen at 0.5969, which could cap further upside in the near term unless momentum builds decisively. For now, the pair trades within a tight band, retaining a bullish tilt as long as it holds above the 0.5880 area.
