The forecast for the NZD/CAD is cautiously bullish after this currency pair stabilized inside its horizontal support area. The flat Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen suggest short-term volatility may increase. The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud confirms volatility potential as the Senkou Span A moves lower and the Senkou Span B drifts higher. Traders should also monitor the CCI after recording a higher low in extreme oversold territory, followed by a breakout. This technical indicator has more upside potential and a push above zero could accelerate the rally.
