NZDUSD has been. Trade Forex and CFDs on MT4 and MT5 with tight spreads, flexible leverage and fast funding. NZDUSD has been trending higher on its 4-hour time frame, moving inside an ascending channel patter. Price already bounced off support and is nearing the channel resistance at the .7100 major psychological mark. If this resistance holds, price could make its way back towards support at the .6950 minor psychological level. Stochastic is already indicating overbought conditions so a selloff might be in order. RSI is also in the overbought area as well and might turn lower to draw more bears in the mix. However, the 100 SMA is above the 200 SMA so the path of least resistance is to the upside. This could take NZDUSD past the channel resistance to start a sharper climb, depending on how today’s New Zealand events play out.

This would be a slower pace of growth compared to the earlier 0.9% gain.
