Fundamental overview:
NZD/USD is expected to trade in a higher range. It is supported by the weaker dollar sentiment (ICE spot dollar index last 85.57 versus 85.69 early Monday) on smaller-than-expected +0.3% on-month increase in U.S. September pending home sales index (versus forecast +1.0%), Kiwi demand on soft AUD/NZD cross and NZD-USD interest differential. But NZD/USD gains are tempered by the waning investor risk appetite.
Technical comment:
Daily chart is mixed as MACD is bullish but stochastics is in a bearish mode, five-day moving average is below 15-day MA and is declining.
