• NZDUSD continues to climb higher

• Strong reaction following the recent correction

• Momentum indicators are turning bullish

In the meantime, the momentum indicators are mostly turning bullish. Specifically, the RSI has climbed above its 50-midpoint, indicating that the bullish pressure is increasing. More importantly, the stochastic oscillator is edging higher, opening the gap from its moving average, and heading towards its overbought area (OB). Only the Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) has yet to acknowledge the current bullish move.

If the bulls remain confident, they could try to push NZDUSD above the busy 0.6037-0.6092 range, which is defined by the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement, the July 14, 2022 low, and the 50-, 100- and 200-day simple moving average (SMAs). If they manage to overcome this key resistance area, the path is clear until the October 1, 2019 low at 0.6198, a tad below the June 12 local peak.

On the flip side, the bears are trying to gain market control, keep NZDUSD below the 0.6037-0.6092 range, and then gradually stage a sell-off towards the May 15, 2022 low at 0.5920. If successful, they could then retest the support set by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the April 5, 2022 – October 13, 2022 downtrend at 0.5870.
