The New Zealand Dollar (NZD) is capitalising on a moderate US Dollar (USD) weakness on a calm trading session, with most markets closed on Easter Monday. The pair has extended its rebound from four-month lows near 0.5680 earlier on the day to 0.5720, although the broader downward trend remains intact so far.
Risk-sensitive assets like the Kiwi are taking a breather on Monday amid news that negotiations for a peace deal in Iran are still in progress. A Reuters report affirms that Iran and the US have received a framework for a plan to end hostilities immediately, which might lead to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Investors have reacted by cutting back long US Dollar positions.
Technical Analysis: Initial signs of recovery
NZD/USD near-term bias remains negative, but recent price action suggests that bears might be running out of steam. The pair is trading in what looks like an ending wedge, after having depreciated more than 6% since late January.
Beyond that, the 4-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows a bullish divergence, as it crawls to the key 50 area. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) line is attempting to cross above the Signal line, with the histogram popping up above the zero line.
Bulls, however, would need to break the trendline resistance, now at 0.5740, and Friday's high at 0.5753, and preferably also the April 1 high, near 0.5780, to confirm a corrective reaction. To the downside, supports are at the mentioned session low, near 0.5680, and the wedge's bottom, around 0.5660.
