- The RSI is declining, indicating potential selling pressure and a shift in momentum.
In Wednesday's session, the NZD/USD traded around 0.6240 near crucial support levels. There are signals of a possible consolidation period as buyers pause after the rally which pushed the pair close to January's highs near 0.6250.
The technical indicators paint a neutral picture with the bullish momentum flattening. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has retreated from overbought territory and currently points downwards, indicating a potential shift in momentum and a build-up of selling pressure. A fall below the 50 level would further underscore this bearish sentiment. In addition, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) prints flat green bars.
