23:46 UTC

Post-rally consolidation, momentum flat · RSI 52 · price 0.56134

Tight 0.5608–0.5618 range since NY open, above Asian range.

London lifted price out of Tuesday's 0.5580–0.5597 Asian range as the USD pulled back from its highs. Since the NY open it has been boxed between the 0.5608 NY low and the 0.5618 range high, and the rollover spike to 0.5600 at the new Asia open was fully reclaimed. RSI(14) sits near 52 and ATR is inflated by the rollover bars.

Support: 0.5610, 0.56077, 0.55971

Resistance: 0.56181, 0.5622

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.5618 range high puts the 0.5622–0.5630 weekly cap in play
  • Loss of the 0.5608 NY low opens the fib 38.2% near 0.5603 and the Asian high at 0.5597
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (core f/c 0.2% MoM) could materially shift this read; Fed Bowman at 09:40 UTC first

23:32 UTC

Post-rally consolidation, momentum flat · RSI 47 · price 0.56118

Tight 0.5608–0.5618 range below session high after London breakout of Asian range.

Tuesday's Asian low at 0.5580 gave way to a London breakout through 0.5600, with the asia-ny rally stalling at the 0.5618 session high as the USD pulled back into CPI. Price has since held a 0.5608–0.5618 consolidation, and the thin rollover wick to the 0.5600 round number, near the 38.2% retracement, was rejected. Early Asia is drifting mid-range with RSI neutral.

Support: 0.56077, 0.56002, 0.55796

Resistance: 0.56181, 0.5626

What it said to watch

  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (15:30 broker) is the next likely range-breaker; core 0.2% MoM is the reference point
  • M15 close above the 0.5618 session high opens the 0.5626 month cap, where prior recoveries stalled
  • Failure to hold the 0.5608 ny low exposes the 0.5600 round number and a deeper retracement of the asia-ny rally
  • ATR is inflated by the rollover wick; ex-rollover bars are running nearer 1.5–2 pips

23:17 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled into a range · RSI 48 · price 0.56113

Flat 0.5608–0.5618 range after London rally.

NZD/USD climbed about 38 pips off the 0.5580 Asian low through London as the USD pulled back into CPI, then stalled into a 0.5608–0.5618 range for the NY session, with the range high at 0.56181. Early Asia is sitting mid-range at 0.5611, flat on EMA20 with RSI(14) neutral at 48, after a thin-liquidity spike to the 0.5600 rollover low was fully reversed.

Support: 0.56077, 0.56034, 0.56002

Resistance: 0.56181, 0.5626

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.56077 ny low breaks the range floor and exposes the fib 38.2% at 0.5603, then the rollover low near 0.5600
  • M15 close above the 0.56181 range high reopens the 0.5626 recovery cap that has halted rallies this month
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (core f/c 0.2% MoM) could materially shift this read

23:03 UTC

Rally stalled, flat range since NY open · RSI 46 · price 0.56113

Tight 0.5608–0.5618 range after the 0.5580–0.5615 Asia-London leg.

The rally ran from the 0.5580 asian low through London to 0.5615 as the USD eased off its highs. NY then held a 10-pip range between the 0.5608 range low and the 0.5618 range top. Thin rollover bars spiked to the 0.5600 round number and were reclaimed, a false break, and early Asia now sits mid-range near 0.5611 with RSI(14) at 46 and price pinned to the flat EMAs.

Support: 0.5608, 0.5600, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5618, 0.5626

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.5608 range low puts the 0.5600 round number and the rally fib 38.2% (~0.5603) back in play
  • M15 close above the 0.5618 range top exposes the 0.5626 monthly cap that has stalled recent recoveries
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (core f/c 0.2% MoM) is the likely range-breaker; a hot core print brings the 0.5580 asian low back into view
  • Fed Bowman at 09:40 UTC could jolt the range during London

22:47 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled, flat range · RSI 46 · price 0.56119

Asia-London higher lows, now 10-pip range under 0.5618.

The Asia-London leg from 0.5580 cleared the asian high at 0.5597 on a softer USD, then stalled into a 0.5608–0.5618 range through NY hours. A thin-liquidity rollover spike to the 0.5600 psych level, near the 38.2% fib of the rally, was reclaimed; price now sits on EMA20 with RSI(14) at 46.

Support: 0.56077, 0.5600, 0.55971

Resistance: 0.56181, 0.5628

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.5618 range high reopens the 0.5626–0.5630 prior cap
  • Acceptance below the 0.5608 range low exposes the 0.5600 psych level and the broken 0.5597 asian high
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (core f/c 0.2% MoM) could materially shift this read

22:31 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled into a tight range · RSI 49 · price 0.56129

Asian range broken higher, 0.5608–0.5618 range since NY open.

The Asia dip to the 0.5580 day low reversed. London broke the Asian high near 0.5600, and NY extended to 0.5614 before the pair flattened into a 0.5608–0.5618 range, in line with USD position-squaring ahead of CPI. The rollover spike to 0.5600 was spread-driven and fully retraced, leaving early Asia mid-range with RSI(14) neutral near 49.

Support: 0.5608, 0.5600, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5618, 0.5626

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.5618 session high opens the 0.5626 prior cap that has capped recoveries this month
  • Failure to hold the 0.5608 ny low exposes the 0.5600 asian high, which coincides with the 38.2% fib of the 0.5580–0.5618 leg
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (core f/c 0.2% MoM) could materially shift this read

22:17 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled into a tight range · RSI 47 · price 0.5612

Range 0.5608–0.5618 since NY open, after Asia low-to-London rally.

NZD bounced from the 18m low at 0.5580 in early Asia and cleared the 0.5600 round number through London as the USD eased on lower crude and yields. Since the NY open price has held a 0.5608 range low to 0.5618 session high box. The rollover spread wick to 0.5600 was fully retraced, and RSI(14) sits neutral near 47 into the Asia session.

Support: 0.5608, 0.5600, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5618, 0.5622

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.5618 session high opens the 0.5622–0.5630 cap zone
  • Failure to hold the 0.5608 range low exposes the 0.5600 round number and the 38.2% fib
  • A break back under 0.5600 puts the 0.5580 18m low back in focus
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

22:03 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled, fading into Asia open · RSI 41 · price 0.56082

Rally from 0.5580 topped at 0.5618, price back at the NY session pivot lows.

A softer USD and oil drove a steady climb off the 0.5580 asia low through London and NY, peaking at the 0.5618 day high during late NY hours. Price then slipped out of the 0.5613–0.5615 ny range. A thin rollover spike tagged the 0.5600 psych level, near the 38.2% fib, and price now sits on the 0.5608 ny lows with RSI(14) near 41 as the Asia session opens.

Support: 0.5608, 0.5600, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5613, 0.5618, 0.5626

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.5608 ny lows exposes 0.5600 psych and the 38.2% fib at 0.5603
  • Recovery back above the 0.5613 ny range floor puts the 0.5618 day high back in play, with 0.5626 recovery cap above
  • Rollover-hour spikes on thin liquidity distort ATR; ranges may stay tight through the Asian range build
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read; a break under the 0.5580 asia low would reverse the whole intraday leg

21:46 UTC

Intraday rally from the Asia low stalled; price slipping in thin rollover trade · RSI 32 · price 0.56042

0.5608–0.5618 range through London-NY, range floor lost after the rollover gap.

21:31 UTC

Rally from Asian low, now flat · RSI 44 · price 0.56122

0.5608–0.5618 NY range after a 38-pip London leg.

NZD rallied about 38 pips from the 0.5580 Asian low through London as the USD and oil eased, then compressed into a 0.5608–0.5618 NY range capped by the session high. A rollover gap to 0.5600, the rollover low, near the 38.2–50% retracement of the Asia-NY rally, was filled within two bars. Price sits mid-range with RSI(14) near 44 and ATR around 3 pips, and has drifted ahead of US CPI.

Support: 0.5608, 0.5600, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5618, 0.5622

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.5608 range low exposes the 0.5600 rollover low and the 38.2% fib
  • Close above the 0.5618 session high opens the 0.5622 recovery cap
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC and Bowman at 09:40 UTC could materially shift this read
  • Loss of 0.5600 puts the 0.5580 Asia low back in focus

Intraday uptrend stalled, late-session drift lower · RSI 35 · price 0.56069

NY range 0.5608–0.5618 broken at rollover gap; price now below the ny low.

NZD rose from the 0.5580 day low as the USD and oil eased. London cleared the Asian high, and NY held a 0.5608–0.5618 range capped by the session high at 0.5618. The thin-liquidity rollover gap pushed price below the ny low to tag the 0.5600 round number, near the 50% retracement of the Asia-ny leg. RSI(14) is near 35.

Support: 0.56002, 0.55946, 0.55796

Resistance: 0.56077, 0.56181

What it said to watch

  • Failure to reclaim the 0.5608 ny low keeps the range-break read intact; a recovery back inside points to rollover noise
  • An M15 close below the 0.5600 round number exposes the 0.5595 asian high, then the 0.5580 day low
  • Asia session open could fill or extend the rollover gap
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (core m/m f/c 0.2%) could materially shift this read; a push through the 0.5618 session high would bring the 0.5622–0.5630 cap into play

21:04 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled, drifting lower in a range · RSI 45 · price 0.56113

Post-rally range 0.5608–0.5618 with lower highs off the 0.5618 session high.

NZD climbed steadily from the 0.5580 Asian-session low through London as the USD pulled back, then NY compressed into a 0.5608–0.5618 range. The 0.5618 session high was rejected at 18:00 UTC and a lower high at 0.5616 followed; price is now sliding toward the ny range low at 0.5610 after NY close, with RSI(14) near 45 and ATR thin at ~2.4 pips ahead of US CPI.

Support: 0.5610, 0.56078, 0.5600

Resistance: 0.56163, 0.56181, 0.5622

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.5610 ny range low, then the 0.5608 ny low, breaks the range and puts the 0.5600 round number and the 38.2% fib near 0.5603 in view
  • Recovery above the 0.5616 lower high and the 0.5618 session high reopens the 0.5622 recovery cap flagged in the macro digest
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC is the next major catalyst; thin Asia trade until then may keep the range intact

20:46 UTC

Intraday uptrend, stalled into a range · RSI 48 · price 0.56123

HH/HL leg from the Asia low, flat range 0.5608–0.5618 since midday.

The Asia low near 0.5580 held and London broke the Asian range high at 0.5601, extending a ~38-pip leg as USD eased ahead of CPI. Since midday the pair has held a 0.5608–0.5618 range, with the day high capping a late NY probe and RSI(14) neutral near 48 as activity thins after NY close.

Support: 0.56077, 0.56008, 0.5600

Resistance: 0.56181, 0.5622

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.5608 range low exposes the 0.5601 asian high and 0.5600 round number
  • Pullback toward the 38.2% fib of the Asia-to-NY leg near 0.5603 would test whether the HL structure holds
  • M15 close above the 0.5618 day high opens the 0.5622–0.5630 recovery cap
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

Intraday uptrend stalled, flat since NY open · RSI 45 · price 0.56123

HH/HL chain from the 0.5580 Asia low, now a tight NY range 0.5608–0.5618.

The bounce off the 0.5580 low in Asia cleared the Asian high at 0.5601 during London as USD eased ahead of CPI. Since NY open, price has been boxed between the 0.5610 range floor and the 0.5616 range top, and the 18:00 UTC push to the 0.5618 session high was rejected. Late NY is quiet, with RSI(14) near 45 and ATR down to about 2 pips. Price is holding only about 12% into the Asia low–session high fib.

Resistance: 0.5616, 0.56181, 0.5622

  • Close above the 0.5618 session high opens the 0.5622–0.5630 recovery cap

Recovery from Asia low, flattening into range · RSI 54 · price 0.56134

Higher lows from 0.5580 through London; sideways NY range since 12:00 UTC.

The climb from the 0.5580 Asia low ran through London on a pre-CPI USD pullback, then stalled during NY hours into a 0.5608–0.5618 range. The session high is 0.5618, set at 18:00 UTC. Price sits mid-range near 0.5613 with RSI(14) neutral around 54, and ATR is compressing as NY winds down.

Support: 0.5608, 0.5600, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5618, 0.5626

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.5618 session high opens the 0.5622–0.5630 recovery cap
  • Failure to hold the 0.5608 ny range low exposes the 0.5600 round number and the 38.2% fib near 0.5603

20:03 UTC

Uptrend, stalled in late NY range · RSI 53 · price 0.56134

HH/HL chain from the Asian low, now a ~10-pip NY consolidation.

The early-Asia bounce from 0.5580 extended through London and into NY as USD eased ahead of CPI. Price has since compressed between the 0.5610 range floor and the 0.5618 session high, sitting on a flat EMA20 with RSI(14) neutral near 53. The ny low at 0.5608 lines up with the rising trendline and fib 23.6%.

Support: 0.5610, 0.56077, 0.56008

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.5608 ny low breaks the rising trendline and the HL chain
  • Loss of 0.5600, the asian high, would put the 38.2% fib at 0.5603 back in play
  • Close above the 0.5618 session high opens the 0.5622–0.5626 recovery cap
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC (core f/c 0.2% m/m) could materially shift this read; Bowman speaks at 09:40 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled, flat in late NY · RSI 52 · price 0.56148

Higher highs from Asia, now a 10-pip NY range 0.5608–0.5618.

NZD/USD bounced from 0.5580 in Asia as the USD eased on lower yields and oil. London cleared the asian high at 0.5601 and NY added a further step higher. Since the NY open price has held a 0.5608–0.5618 range, the session high at 0.5618 caps it, RSI(14) sits neutral near 52 and ATR has compressed to about 2.5 pips.

Support: 0.56077, 0.56008

Resistance: 0.56181, 0.5622

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.5618 session high exposes the 0.5622–0.5630 cap zone flagged in the macro digest
  • Break of the 0.5608 ny range low turns the read to a pullback toward the 0.5601 asian high, near the 38.2% of the Asia–NY rally fib
  • US CPI Wed 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read; the coming Asia session is likely to stay compressed ahead of it

19:17 UTC

Higher lows inside a 0.5608–0.5618 NY range.

NZD climbed from the 0.5580 Asian low through London as the USD pulled back, breaking the asian high at 0.5601. It has since compressed into a 0.5608–0.5618 range during NY hours, printing higher lows along trendline support. A late-NY probe of the 0.5618 session high was rejected; RSI(14) sits neutral near 50 and ATR is thin, consistent with pre-CPI caution.

  • Break of the 0.5611 higher low and trendline support exposes the 0.5608 ny low
  • Loss of the 0.5608 ny low puts the 0.5601 asian high and the rally fib 38.2% near 0.5603 in focus

HH/HL chain from Asian low, flattening into a tight NY range.

London extended the Asia-session rebound off 0.5580 through the asian high at 0.5600 as the USD eased on lower yields and oil. NY has since compressed into a 0.5608–0.5618 range, slipping under the rising asia trendline. The session high at 0.5618 sits just below the 0.5622 cap zone.

HH/HL chain from the Asian low, now a tight NY range 0.5608–0.5618.

London broke the Asian high at 0.5597 and extended the rebound from the 0.5580 Asian low as softer yields and oil eased the USD. NY has compressed above a 0.5610 range base. A late-NY poke to a 0.5618 day high left an upper wick, and RSI(14) is neutral near 56.

HH/HL climb from the Asia low, now a tight 0.5608–0.5617 range.

A steady HH/HL climb from the 0.5580 swing low in Asia carried through London as the USD eased on softer yields and oil, then stalled at the 0.5617 session high early in the NY session. Late NY is coiling in a 0.5608–0.5617 range, holding above the 23.6% of the rally fib, with price flat on EMA20, RSI(14) near 52 and ATR(14) under 3 pips.

Uptrend stalled into a flat NY range · RSI 50 · price 0.56122

HH/HL rally from the 0.5580 swing low, now a tight NY session range.

The early-Asia dip to the 0.5580 swing low turned into a steady HH/HL rally through London as the USD and oil eased, peaking at the 0.5617 session high in the first hour of NY. Since then price has compressed in a 0.5608–0.5617 NY range. The ny low sits on the 23.6% retracement of the rally, RSI(14) is flat near 50 and ATR has contracted to about 3 pips ahead of US CPI.

  • M15 close above the 0.5617 session high reopens the 0.5622 recovery cap zone
  • Loss of 0.5600 would put the rally's 38.2% level (~0.5603) and the 0.5580 swing low back in focus

Higher lows from 0.5580 into a tight 0.5608–0.5617 NY range.

London lifted the pair out of the 0.5580–0.5597 Asian range as USD eased with softer yields, and NY printed a session high at 0.5617. Price has since compressed in a 0.5608–0.5617 band into late NY. The NY low sits at the 23.6% retrace of the Asian low–session high leg, RSI(14) is neutral near 49 and ATR(14) is about 3 pips.

Rebound off lows, momentum flattening · RSI 56 · price 0.55924

Asia HH/HL rebound off 0.5580, consolidating under Asia high.

The Asia session rejected the 0.5580 Asia low near the multi-month low at 00:30 UTC. Price rebounded 15 pips to a 0.5595 Asia high, recovering part of Monday's London-NY slide from the 0.5612 Monday high. The pullback printed a higher low at 0.5590, just above the 38.2% fib. Price is now consolidating under the Asia high ahead of London open, with a firm USD into Wednesday's CPI capping the bounce so far.

  • Break above the 0.5595 Asia high extends the HH/HL chain toward the 0.5600 round number, then the 0.5612 Monday high
  • M15 close below the 0.5590 higher low breaks the rebound structure and reopens the 0.5580 Asia low

Intraday rebound, stalling below Asia high · RSI 60 · price 0.55915

HH/HL chain off Asia low, tight consolidation near highs.

The Asia session pushed under Monday's 0.5583 NY low and the 0.5580 multi-month floor to an Asia low of 0.55796, then reversed. Price printed a higher low at 0.5585 and an Asia high at 0.55946 as USD eased off its highs. Price is now compressing around 0.5591 on rising support and above the 0.55895 pullback low, with roughly 1.5h to London open.

Resistance: 0.55946, 0.5600, 0.56122

What it said to watch

  • Close above the 0.55946 Asia high exposes the 0.5600 round number, then the 0.56122 Monday high
  • Loss of the 0.55895 pullback low and rising support turns focus to the 0.5585 higher low
  • Return below the 0.55796 Asia low negates the sweep-and-reverse read

Intraday downtrend, Asian rebound fading · RSI 53 · price 0.55901

Monday low swept to 0.5580, higher low at 0.5585, lower highs off 0.5595.

Monday's London/NY slide on oil-driven risk aversion and a firm USD is intact below the 0.5600 round number. Asia swept Monday's 0.5582 low to an asian low at 0.5580, the 17-month low, then produced a 15-pip asian rebound to the 0.5595 asian high. Late Asia is now fading toward the fib 50% at 0.5587, with RSI(14) neutral near 53 and price sitting on EMA20.

Support: 0.55871, 0.5585, 0.55796

Resistance: 0.55946, 0.5600, 0.56122

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold the 0.5585 higher low reopens the 0.5580 asian low and 17-month low.
  • A London-open push through the 0.5595 asian high exposes the 0.5600 round number. Only a reclaim of the 0.5612 prior high, Monday's session high, would invalidate the down-leg read.
  • Fed's Waller at 07:45 UTC and pre-CPI USD positioning could shift this read during London.

Downtrend, Asia bounce stalling · RSI 54 · price 0.5590

Asian higher-low chain off 0.5580, pulling back from 0.5595.

Monday's London and NY sessions sold NZDUSD from the 0.5612 day high to 0.5583 as oil-driven risk aversion and a firm USD weighed. The Asia session bounced off the 0.5580 asian low near the 17-month floor and stalled at the 0.5595 asian high. Price is now back at 0.5590, roughly the 38.2% fib of that bounce, with RSI(14) near 54 and price sitting on EMA20.

Support: 0.5585, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5595, 0.5600, 0.5612

What it said to watch

  • Holding the 0.5585 higher low keeps the Asian chain intact; losing it exposes the 0.5580 asian low
  • A close above the 0.5595 asian high brings the 0.5600 round number and 0.5612 day high into view
  • Waller at 07:45 UTC and Wednesday's US CPI could shift the USD tone and this read

Higher-low chain off 0.5580 capped at 0.5595 Asia high.

Monday's oil-driven risk-off slide from the 0.5612 prior high ran into the 17m low at 0.5580 at the Asia open, where demand absorbed the move. The Asia bounce printed higher lows but stalled at the 0.5595 Asia high, and late Asia session price is drifting at 0.5591, holding just above the ema20 with RSI(14) near 56 and ATR around 3 pips.

Support: 0.5590, 0.5585, 0.5580

Resistance: 0.5595, 0.5600, 0.5612

What it said to watch

  • A break below the 0.5585 asia pivot and the rising trendline undoes the Asia higher-low chain and puts the 17m low at 0.5580 back in play.
  • An M15 close above the 0.5595 asia high exposes the 0.5600 figure, which capped Monday's NY bounce.
  • Fed's Waller at 07:45 UTC lands in early London and could shift USD tone before Wednesday's US CPI.

Higher lows off the Asia low, stalling under 0.5595.

Early Asia briefly broke below the 0.5580 17-month low, printing an Asia low at 0.55796. Price then rebounded about 15 pips in a higher-low chain to the 0.55946 Asia high as DXY eased off its highs. Upside is stalling just under that level with RSI(14) near 62, after Monday's oil-driven slide from 0.5612 capped at the 0.5600 round number.

Resistance: 0.55946, 0.5600

  • M15 close above the 0.55946 Asia high opens the path to the 0.5600 round number
  • A break back below the 0.55796 Asia low resumes the lower-low sequence through 0.5580

Asian sweep below 0.5580 reversed into a HH/HL chain.

Late Asia session: an early dip below 0.5580 printed a 0.55796 sweep low, then reversed into a higher-low chain that cleared Monday's NY range top at 0.5589 as DXY eased slightly. Price is pressing the 0.5595 session high, just above the 38.2% retracement of Monday's slide, with RSI(14) near 66.

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back below the 0.5589 range top undoes the breakout and returns price to Monday's NY range
  • A break of the Asian trendline and the 0.5585 swing low would put the 0.5580 sweep low back in focus
  • Acceptance above the 0.5595 session high opens the 0.5600 figure, where supply capped price early Monday

Asia HH/HL chain after a sweep of Monday's low.

Tuesday's Asia session briefly took out the 0.5580 swing low (0.55796) after Monday's London-NY selloff, then reversed into a higher-high/higher-low chain to a 0.55946 session high as DXY eased. Price is stalling just under that high, below Monday's London breakdown zone and the 0.5600 round number, with RSI(14) near 64.

  • A break of the 0.5585 asia hl ends the higher-low sequence and puts the 0.5580 swing low back in play
  • A move back below the 0.5580 swing low turns the Asia sweep into a fresh lower low

Asia sweep of 0.5580 low followed by higher-high/higher-low chain.

Asia dipped below Monday's late-NY base to a 0.5580 session low, near the 17-month low flagged in the digest, then stepped back to 0.5594 on a chain of higher lows. Price now sits between the 38.2% and fib 50% retrace of Monday's 0.5612–0.5580 decline. The round number at 0.5600 capped the London-NY transition bounce yesterday.

Asia higher lows off 0.5580 after false break; capped at 38.2% fib.

Early Asia slipped to a 0.5580 session low, briefly below the prior rollover low. Price was rejected there and has put in higher lows up to the 0.5593 asian high as USD eases. That high sits on the 38.2% retracement of Monday's decline from the 0.5612 London high; RSI(14) is near 58.

False break below 0.5580, then HH/HL chain clearing the overnight range top.

Monday's London-NY slide from 0.5612 bottomed in a flat 0.5583–0.5589 range. Early Asia then dipped to 0.55796, briefly piercing the 0.5580 17m low, and reversed. Higher lows at 0.5585 and a clear of the 0.5589 range top have price pressing the 0.5593 Asia high, near 38.2% of Monday's decline, as USD eases in Asia.

Asian session pushed below Monday's NY lows to the 0.5580 asia low, then reversed to 0.5591, back above the 0.5583–0.5589 range top that capped the NY session. Price is now testing the fib 38.2 retracement of Monday's 0.5612–0.5580 slide near 0.5593, with the USD still firm on oil and hawkish Fed talk.

Monday's London-NY slide from 0.5612 printed lower highs into 0.5583 as an oil-driven USD bid weighed. Asia swept that low to the 0.5580 asia low, which is also the 17-month low, then bounced to the 0.5590 asia high. Price now sits mid-range near the 0.5585 pullback low, just under EMA50, with RSI(14) neutral around 50.

Monday's London-NY slide from the 0.5600 round number stalled in a tight 0.5583-0.5587 band, in line with oil-driven risk aversion and a firm USD. In the Asia session the pair dipped to a 0.55796 sweep low just under the 0.5580 17-month low and snapped back. It set a higher low at 0.55851 and is now pressing the 0.5590 asia high, with RSI(14) neutral near 51.

Lower highs from 0.5612; Asian range 0.5580–0.5589 after a sweep of the NY low.

Monday's London and NY sessions ground lower from 0.5612 as oil-driven risk aversion lifted the USD, with the London open breaking below the 0.5600 round number. The early Asia dip swept the 0.5583 NY low to the 0.5580 Asian low and was bought back. Price now sits mid-range below the 0.5589 Asian high and under the 23.6% of the Monday decline fib, with RSI(14) neutral near 46.

Monday's grind lower from 0.5612 through London and NY stalled at the 0.5583 NY low, and early Asia dipped through the 0.5580 17-month low to 0.55796 before snapping back to 0.5587, a false break with RSI(14) back near 54. Price now sits on the 23.6% fib of the session decline, just under the 0.5589 session high, with oil-driven USD demand still in the background.

Lower highs from NY open; brief sub-0.5580 dip, back at old range floor.

The NY leg from 0.5601 to 0.5583 on oil-driven USD demand left a chain of lower highs. It then went flat into a 0.5582–0.5589 range through rollover. The 00:00 UTC breakdown in early Asia briefly pierced 0.5580 to a 0.55796 session low, and price is back at 0.5583 with RSI(14) near 44 and ATR around 2.3 pips, so far without follow-through below the 17-month low.

Support: 0.55796

Early in Tuesday's Asia session it broke the 0.5583 NY low and printed an asia low at 0.5580, right on the 17-month low, as oil-driven risk aversion and a firm USD weigh. RSI(14) near 39 is not stretched, and ATR(14) is about 2.3 pips.

Resistance: 0.5583, 0.55892, 0.5600

What it said to watch

NZDUSD bled from Monday's 0.5619 Asian high through London and NY, capped by a lower-highs line as oil-driven risk aversion and a firm USD weighed. The pair drifted in a 0.5583–0.5589 band late in the session. Early Tuesday Asia has slipped back to a fresh window low at 0.5582, just above the 0.5580 17-month low, with RSI(14) near 41 and no oversold extreme.

London and NY extended Monday's slide from the 0.5612 swing high to 0.5583 as oil-driven USD demand persisted. Price has since compressed below 0.5600, and the early Asia session's push to the 0.5589 Asia high faded. It now sits just above the 0.5582 session low and the 0.5580 17m low, with ATR near 2 pips.

Monday's London-led slide from 0.5612 to the 0.5582 session low has stalled into a tight 0.5582–0.5589 consolidation through NY afternoon and the early Asia session. Oil-driven risk aversion and a firm USD have kept NZD pinned just above the 0.5580 17-month low. The asia high at 0.5589 caps the bounce near the 23.6% retrace of the Monday decline, and ATR(14) has compressed to about 2 pips.
