Overview:

• The NZD/USD pair continues moving upwards from the level of 0.6822. Yesterday, the pair rose from the level of 0.6837 (the level of 0.6837 coincides with a ratio of 38.2% Fibonacci retracement) to a top around 0.6886. Today, the first support level is seen at 0.6837 followed by 0.6822, while daily resistance 1 is seen at 0.6921. According to the previous events, the NZD/USD pair is still moving between the levels of 0.6822 and 0.6921. On the one-hour chart, immediate resistance is seen at 0.6921, which coincides with a ratio of 78.6% Fibonacci retracement. Currently, the price is moving in a bullish channel. This is confirmed by the RSI indicator signaling that we are still in a bullish trending market. Therefore, if the trend is able to break out through the first resistance level of 0.6921, we should see the pair climbing towards the second resistance at 0.6967 to test it.
• On the other hand, in case a reversal takes place and the NZD/USD pair breaks through the support level of 0.6800, a further decline to 0.6741 can occur. This would indicate a bearish market.
