Resistance: 0.5900, 0.5975

NZD/USD Long-Term Trend: Bearish Reversal

On the daily chart, the recent breakout above the descending channel has proven to be a false move. The price of NZD/USD failed to hold its gains and has since tumbled back within the confines of the channel, invalidating the bullish signal. This failure is a significant win for the bears.

The renewed bearish sentiment is confirmed by the technical indicators. The Parabolic SAR has flipped, with its dots now appearing above the price candles, signaling a fresh downtrend. Furthermore, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has plunged back below the 50 midline to a reading of 43.24. This confirms that momentum has shifted firmly back into the hands of the sellers. The immediate focus is now on the next major support at $0.5802.

NZD/USD Short-Term Trend: Bearish (4-hour chart)

The 4-hour chart clearly illustrates the strength of the recent sell-off. The pair has established a clear pattern of lower lows and lower highs since the rejection from the $0.5975 peak. The price is now grinding lower with conviction, showing little sign of a significant bounce.
The downtrend on this timeframe is reinforced by the Parabolic SAR, which remains firmly above the price. It is acting as dynamic resistance to any minor rallies.
