NZD/USD daily chart
On the daily chart, the NZD/USD pair is facing immediate resistance at 0.6040. A break above this level and a consolidation above the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) could open the door for a deeper rally toward 0.6100 and 0.6150. On the downside, support lies at 0.5970 (20-day SMA) and 0.5900. A break below 0.5900 could trigger a deeper pullback.
