0.5580–0.5628 range; lower highs since Tuesday, higher low Wednesday.
From the 0.5607 weekly open the pair dropped in Monday's Asia session and printed the week low at 0.5580 in NY, then rallied into Tuesday's NY session to a week high at 0.5628, where it met rejection. Wednesday unwound nearly 90% of that rally (mon-tue rally fib) as the 10y auction cleared at 5.30% and hawkish FOMC minutes lifted the USD, but the wed low at 0.5585 held above Monday's. Price now sits at 0.5600, just under EMA20 (~0.5602) with RSI(14) near 45, capped by a line of wed lower highs.

NZDUSD has rotated inside a 0.5580–0.5628 range since Monday's open, with lower highs off Friday's NFP spike to 0.5643 pressing toward the week low at 0.5580, where higher lows have formed. Wednesday's slide from just under the Tuesday high ran through London into the NY open to the Wednesday low at 0.5585 as US yields and the USD firmed. The post-FOMC-minutes bounce stalled at the 50% fib of that decline near 0.5606, just under the weekly open at 0.5607, leaving price below the ema20 at 0.5602 with RSI(14) near 43.

The week opened at 0.5607. Monday's Asia-to-NY slide set the week low at 0.5580, and Tuesday's London-led rebound was rejected at the 0.5628 week high. Wednesday gave that back as US yields climbed ahead of the FOMC minutes, with sellers pressing to 0.5585 (Wednesday's low) in the first hour of NY. Price has since recovered to sit on EMA(20) near 0.5603, still below EMA(50) and the weekly open, which lines up with the 50% retracement of the Tuesday-Wednesday decline, while RSI(14) holds in the mid-40s.

Contracting range 0.5580–0.5628, lower highs vs higher lows.
NZDUSD has rotated inside a 0.5580–0.5628 range since Monday's open. Tuesday's London-to-NY rally met rejection at the 0.5628 week high and was almost fully unwound during Wednesday's London session as US 10y yields pushed to 24-year highs ahead of the FOMC minutes. Wednesday's dip printed a higher low at 0.5585 above Monday's 0.5580 week low, and price now sits just under EMA(20) near 0.5603 and the 0.5607 weekly open with RSI(14) near 44, while lower highs from Friday's NFP spike narrow the range.

Since the 0.5607 weekly open the pair has worked a 0.5580–0.5628 range. Monday's Asia and NY selling set the week low at 0.5580, and Tuesday's NY rally met rejection at the 0.5628 week high. The Wednesday sell-off, driven by US 10y yields hitting 5.35% and Brent above $100, unwound that rebound to the 0.5585 Wed low into the NY open. Price now sits at 0.5597, below the ema20 near 0.5603, with RSI(14) near 39 and lower hourly highs since the Asia session.

Price now sits below EMA(20) near 0.5604 and the weekly open with RSI(14) around 40, after demand stepped in during NY hours at today's low of 0.5585, a higher low against Monday, while lower highs persist from Friday's NFP spike.

Wednesday reversed most of that Tuesday rally as US yields climbed back above 5.30%, sliding from Asia into the London-NY transition to a 0.5585 day low beyond the 61.8% retracement and just above the week low; price now sits below ema20 (0.5604) and the 0.5607 weekly open with RSI(14) near 39.

NZDUSD has rotated inside a 0.5580–0.5628 range since Monday's Asia-session drop, with lower highs running back to Friday's NFP spike at 0.5643. Tuesday's London-to-NY rally met rejection at the 0.5628 week high and was unwound through Wednesday as US yields rebounded into the FOMC minutes. That slide took price below the ema20 and the weekly open to a 0.5585 day low, with RSI(14) near 37.

Wednesday has unwound Tuesday's London-led rally to the 0.5628 week high, with Asia-session and late-London selling taking price back below EMA(20) and the 0.5600 round number as US yields climbed back above 5.30%. The NY-open session low at 0.5585 sits just above Monday's 0.5580 week low, and price is parked at the 78.6% level of the Tuesday rally fib with RSI(14) near 35 after a run of Wednesday lower highs.

RSI(14) has eased to around 40 and price has retraced roughly three-quarters of Tuesday's rally, yet the higher lows from 0.5580 to 0.5589 and today's 0.5593 session low are still intact.

Tuesday's London-to-NY rally met rejection at 0.5628 and has been faded through Wednesday's Asia and London sessions as US yields rebounded into the FOMC minutes. That move has retraced more than 61.8% of the Tuesday rally and left price below the weekly open (0.5607) and the EMA(20) near 0.5611, with RSI(14) near 34.

Tuesday's London-NY rally stalled at the 0.5628 week high, and the Asia session today has retraced about 40% of that leg on the fib as US yields recovered, leaving price at the weekly open, just under EMA(20) near 0.5611, with RSI(14) near 45.

Monday's Asia-session drop from the 0.5607 weekly open printed the 0.5580 week low into the NY open, before a London-led rally on Tuesday reclaimed EMA(20) and stalled at the 0.5628 week high during NY hours, the failed bounce flagged in the NZD digest. The Asia session today has faded that move back onto the weekly open as the USD firmed with yields, leaving price below EMA(20) near 0.5612 and between the 38.2% and 50% retracements of Tuesday's rally. RSI(14) has rolled from near 70 to 47, and the higher-lows trendline from the week low held on the 0.5601 Asian low.

Price then held a tight 0.5585–0.5600 band before Tuesday's London-to-NY rally as the USD slipped below 102.00 on softer yields and oil. That bounce met rejection at the 0.5628 week high, and the USD rebound in Wednesday's Asia session has since printed a string of lower highs.

Asia has since given back the move as the USD rebounded on hawkish Fed remarks, putting price below the week open at 0.5607 and the ema20 near 0.5613, with RSI(14) slipping to ~42.

Higher lows off 0.5580, compressing under week high.
NZDUSD set a week low at 0.5580 in Monday's NY session, testing the YTD floor flagged in the macro digest. It then built higher lows and broke the week open at 0.5607 and the Monday high at 0.5621 in late London on Tuesday, extending into NY as the USD slipped with yields and oil. Price has since compressed in a 0.5621–0.5628 band just under the week high, above EMA(20) near 0.5617, with RSI(14) easing to ~62 from a 69 Tuesday peak and the lower-highs line from Friday's NFP high at 0.5643 directly overhead.
Support: 0.5621, 0.5617, 0.5607
Resistance: 0.5628, 0.5643
What it said to watch
H1 close above the 0.5628 week high and the lower-highs line opens the 0.5643 nfp high
Close back below the 0.5621 monday high and ema20 exposes the week open at 0.5607, where the 50% rebound retracement sits
Break of the higher-lows line from 0.5580 negates the rebound structure
