Going short on NZD/USD could be a strategic move if you anticipate the US dollar appreciating against the New Zealand dollar, driven by a combination of higher US interest rates, robust economic indicators in the US outpacing those of New Zealand, and global market conditions favoring the safety of the USD over smaller, more volatile currencies. Factors such as declining commodity prices, which directly affect New Zealand's export-driven economy, alongside bearish technical indicators for NZD/USD, further support the rationale for a short position. This approach capitalizes on the expectation that the NZD will weaken, allowing traders to profit from selling high and buying back at a lower price.
