As the Asian session commences, the NZD/USD trades at 0.6154, reporting minimal gains of 0.11%.

NZD/USD Price Analysis: Technical outlook

The NZD/USD is neutral to a downward bias, albeit breaking a downslope resistance trendline that intersects with the 50-day EMA. For the NZD/USD to shift the bias to neutral, buyers must reclaim the May 12 swing low-turned resistance at 0.6182 before the NZD/USD could challenge the 0.62 handle.

In the outcome of the latter scenario, the next support would be April 26, low at 0.6111. A break below that area and the NZD/USD would surpass the next support at 0.6100 as the pair continues to test the June 8 low of 0.6032. Once cleared, the year-to-date (YTD) low would be up for grabs at 0.5985.
