The forecast for the EUR/NZD turned cautiously bullish after this currency pair stabilized at its horizontal support area. The Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen have flatlined, suggesting the absence of short-term selling pressure. The Senkou Span A and the Senkou Span B of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud are also flat, which could limit the upside potential. Traders should also monitor the CCI after recording a higher low in extreme oversold territory, followed by a breakout. This technical indicator has plenty of upside potential, and a move above zero could trigger the next advance.
