Moving on to the hourly chart, RSI values are inclining more towards the positive side, with the recent readings registered at 53. This shift may hint at a short-term gain in buyers' momentum. In addition, the hourly MACD histogram displays green bars, adding arguments for the recovering bullish momentum.
NZD/JPY hourly chart
Upon examining the broader perspective, the NZD/JPY has showcased significant bearish tendencies as its sits below its 20, 100 and 200-day Simple Moving Averages (SMA). In addition, a bearish crossover of the 20 and 100-day SMA at around 91.00 could precipitate even sharper declines.
Summarizing, sellers seem to have control over the NZD/JPY pair's direction on the daily chart. However, recent hourly data indicates potential short-term bullish corrections. Nevertheless, the prevailing trend is inclined towards further weakness, reinforced by the SMA positioning, and a potential bearish crossover.
