Technical Analysis of NZD/USD
The recent rally accelerated after bulls broke through the downward trendline (shown in orange). However, bears may expect a correction due to three key factors:
→ The price is near the 0.58000 level, which previously acted as support (as indicated by arrows). It may now serve as resistance, limiting further gains.
→ The RSI indicator is in overbought territory, unsurprising given the rally's pace over the past week.
→ The price is near the upper boundary of the ascending channel (in place since early 2025), which could also act as resistance to further upside.
