The forecast for the NZD/USD turned bullish after this currency pair corrected into its horizontal support area. Confirming the lack of short-term bearishness is the flat Kijun-sen, but volatility could remain elevated as the Tenkan-sen extends its moderate downside drift. The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud supported the correction, but the Senkou Span A shows signs of stabilization. Traders should monitor the CCI, which dipped into extreme oversold territory, and if it will record a higher low before reversing higher. A breakout above -100 could trigger the next advance.
