NZDUSD moves back below its 200 hour MA but finds support at 50% midpoint target

NZDUSD pulled back after reaching its highest level since June 5, with momentum fading and the pair correcting into a key technical support area. Price is testing the 200-hour moving average near 0.5819 and the 50% retracement of the May 29 high to June 26 low at 0.5809. A brief dip to 0.5812 attracted buyers, showing this zone is being defended. Bulls need to reclaim the 200-hour MA and then break above the 100-hour MA at 0.5839 to restore near-term upside momentum and keep the June highs in play. A break below 0.5809 and especially 0.5800 would strengthen the bearish case and expose downside toward 0.5765-0.5777. Overall, the article frames NZDUSD as a technical tug-of-war, with the next directional move likely determined by whether support holds or fails.
