The forecast for the EUR/NZD turned cautiously bearish after this currency pair spiked but lost upside momentum at its horizontal resistance area. Following a bearish crossover, the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud narrowed, and the Senkou Span A and the Senkou Span B flatlined. Short-term volatility could increase with the Kijun-sen and the Tenkan-sen flat after completing a bullish crossover. Traders should also monitor the CCI in extreme overbought territory, where a negative divergence could form. A breakdown below 100 may trigger the next wave of sell orders, which could take this technical indicator below zero with plenty of downside potential.
