GBPNZD has been on a strong uptrend in the past few weeks, as diverging monetary policy biases have driven the pair to the 2.1000 levels. A correction is taking place, with the pair pulling back to the Fibonacci levels on the 4-hour chart.
The 38.2% Fibonacci level lines up with the 100 simple moving average, which might act as dynamic support for price action. The 200 SMA is between the 61.8% and 50% Fibonacci levels, which might also keep any losses in check.
The 2.0000 major psychological level is close to the 61.8% Fib and a former resistance zone, which might act as support. Stochastic is moving up from the oversold zone, hinting at a return of buying pressure while MACD is also moving higher.
A rally could take the pair back up to the previous highs at 2.1000 while a selloff could lead to a test of the previous support around the 1.9500 mark. From a fundamental standpoint, the bias for this pair is to the upside as the RBNZ has intervened in the currency market to weaken the Kiwi while the BOE is open to tightening policy next year.
