Analysis of NZD/USD: Price Approaches Key Resistance Zone
The NZD/USD chart today shows that the New Zealand dollar has risen by over 3% against the USD in less than a week. From another perspective, the NZD/USD rate has climbed more than 5% from its August low.
The volatility in the exchange rate was influenced by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand's decision to cut interest rates, as reported on 14 August.
Technical analysis of the NZD/USD chart reveals: → The current bullish sentiment has pushed the RSI indicator from the oversold into the overbought zone. → The 0.60770 level, which marked the peak on 13-14 August, may now act as support following its bullish breakout on 19 August.
More notably, the NZD/USD rate has entered a resistance zone (marked in purple), formed by trendlines drawn through key highs of 2023-2024. This could potentially slow the upward momentum.
As a result, the NZD/USD chart might continue to see significant fluctuations between this resistance zone and the critical support at 0.588 (a level where the price has repeatedly attempted, but failed, to break below over the past 12 months).
Investor attention now shifts to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's speech at the Jackson Hole symposium on Friday, which could trigger a surge in volatility and provide insights into how strongly the resistance zone is impacting the NZD/USD rate.
