In Tuesday's session, the NZD/JPY pair rose by 0.95% above 88.00. Considering the fresh gains and the latest technical outlook, a reversal of last week's losses is on the cards.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 45, which is still in negative area. However, the slope of the RSI is sharply rising, indicating that buying pressure is recovering. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is also red, but the histogram is decreasing, suggesting that selling pressure is declining. This mixed technical outlook suggests that the NZD/JPY pair may continue to consolidate in the short term after the latest sharp losses.
