Bulls attempt to retake the 20-day SMA, outlook promising

• The NZD/USD pair has been choppy between 0.6159-0.6260 in the past sessions.
• The RSI shows rising buying pressure, whereas the MACD suggests a potential reversal in the bearish momentum.

On Thursday, the NZD/USD pair rose to 0.6239, above the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) which served as a strong resistance in the last sessions. Indicators meanwhile look promising.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 59, in positive territory with a rising slope, signaling rising buying pressure. Conversely, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram is red and falling, suggesting that selling pressure may be declining. This presents a mixed outlook for the pair.
