2/6/2023 11:05 AM

The NZD/USD pair continues to be extremely poor near 0.6328, likely to remain unchanged today as trading is suspended due to the Waitangi Day celebration.

At the end of last week, Statistics New Zealand (Stats NZ) released data on the cost of living for different groups of households in 2022, which, as expected, reflected a negative trend: the overall indicator rose by 8.2%, there was an increase of 9.4% for households with large spending, and with small one – by 7.1%. Among the key factors for the increase, experts identify housing, food, and transport prices, which will continue to increase soon.

On Friday, the US dollar showed the most significant increase in the last two months, reaching 102.900 in the USD Index on the back of a positive report on the labor market, according to which the overall unemployment rate in the country fell to 3.4% from 3.5%, although analysts had expected increase to 3.6%. The increase in employment in the non-agricultural sector had the greatest impact on the indicator, which in the public sector amounted to 517.0K jobs compared to 260.0K a month earlier, and in the private sector – 443.0K against 269.0K, although experts assumed decline in both categories.


The trading instrument is actively decreasing, approaching the December low at 0.6240.

Technical indicators are reversing: fast EMAs on the Alligator indicator have narrowed the range of fluctuations and are approaching the signal line, while the AO histogram forms downward bars in the buying zone.

Resistance levels: 0.6400, 0.6550. | Support levels: 0.6240, 0.6030.
