The dovish RBNZ announcement continues to weigh heavily on the Kiwi, as traders appear to be pricing in yet another interest rate cut in their next meeting.
Meanwhile, the euro is drawing some support from improvements in mid-tier data, including the German Ifo business climate figure and upbeat flash PMI reports.
Can EUR/NZD sustain its uptrend from here?

The pair appears to be retreating from its latest rally, testing support at the pivot point level (1.9890) but still having room to pull back to Fibonacci retracement levels.
The 38.2% Fib lines up with S1 (1.9740) while the 61.8% retracement is closer to the rising trend line support, former resistance zone and the 200 SMA dynamic inflection point. Watch out for reversal candlesticks at these areas, as a continuation of the climb could take EUR/NZD back up to the swing high or the next upside target at R1 (2.0120).
On the other hand, long red candlesticks closing below the trend line support and S2 (1.9510) could clear the way for a selloff down to the next bearish targets at S3 (1.9360) then S4 (1.9220).
Whichever bias you end up trading, don’t forget to practice proper risk management and stay aware of top-tier catalysts that could influence overall market sentiment.
