Overview:
NZD/USD is trading in a higher range. The kiwi sentiment is boosted after New Zealand's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate fell to 6.2% in the third quarter from 6.4% in the second quarter, while the seasonally adjusted employment beat forecast for a 0.6% rise. NZD/USD is also supported by the buoyant Kiwi demand in cross trades versus major currencies. But the NZD/USD upside is limited by positive dollar sentiment; diminished investor risk appetite; weak commodity prices. Daily chart is mixed as MACD is bearish, but stochastics is rising from oversold.
