NZD/JPY Price Analysis: Buyers dominance diminishes, market could favor sellers soon

Source Fxstreet
  • The daily RSI shows that buyers' hold over the market is likely fading, signaling the growing presence of sellers.
  • On the hourly chart, indicators underline a prominent seller command in the past sessions.

The NZD/JPY is trading slightly lower at around 91.23. It seems the firm grip buyers had over the market is dwindling, yet the pair doggedly persists above crucial Simple Moving Averages (SMAs). Market watchers should eye the short-term trajectory of the NZD/JPY for any potential shifts that could give sellers the upper hand. Specifically, if bears breach the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 91.00.

On the daily RSI fluctuates around the positive region but is currently pointing down. This, combined with the rising red bars trend in the MACD (Moving Average Converge Divergence) histogram, indicates that buyer dominance is fading and the market could begin favoring sellers soon.

In addition, the hourly Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers below the neutral 50 line, reflecting a dominant presence of sellers in the recent sessions. The negative thrust is confirmed by the MACD, which reveals decreasing green bars, indicating diminishing positive momentum.

Upon evaluating the broader landscape, the NZD/JPY is currently hovering above its key Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), reflecting continued buying pressure thereby sustaining the long-term uptrend. However, the pair closely challenges the 20-day SMA, suggesting potential for further downward movements if this level doesn’t hold. Moreover, the pair maintaining a stance above the 100 and 200-day SMAs reinforces a long-term bullish view.

Dollar presses 102 as the 10-year yield sits at 5.14% — and October hike odds are only 17%The dollar index closed at 101.99 (+0.20%) on Monday after briefly topping 102.07, while the 10-year Treasury yield rose to 5.14% and the 2-year hit 4.774% — yet futures price only about a 17% chance of a hike at the October 27-28 FOMC, versus roughly 90% for December. The driver is a global bond selloff, not a Fed repricing: France's 10-year OAT jumped to 4.84% ~ 4.94% and the OAT-Bund spread widened to 140 ~ 146bp. Here are the levels, the cross-asset read-through and what to watch.
