▲
Score: 3/10 — Risk-Off Bias
Inputs: DXY=99.14 (+0.30%), NZD -0.35% daily, -0.47% weekly, commodity currency weakness = bearish sentiment
Directional Bias
- Bias: Short
- Confidence: Moderate
- Rationale: Distribution phase with USD strength and NZD weakness on multiple timeframes. High Asian volume validates zones. Fresh demand at 0.57200-0.57300 may provide temporary support, but trend favors downside. Favor selling rallies to supply over buying dips.

Momentum View
"Distribution phase with USD strength and NZD multi-timeframe weakness suggests downside bias toward 0.57200 demand. IF supply at 0.57500 holds → highly likely rejection back to 0.57200-0.57250. Fresh demand at 0.57200-0.57300 may provide support, but likely to break on continued USD strength. Risk-reward favors selling rallies to 0.57380-0.57500 supply over buying dips—patience for supply zone rejection offers favorable short entries aligned with trend."
