AUD/JPY: At Key Level For Bulls

AUD

AUD/JPY rose 0.5% as higher US Treasury Yields weighed on the Yen. The pair sits above ¥92 handle, last printing at ¥92.20/30.

  • Since falling below ¥92 in the wake of the December BoJ meeting the cross has been unable to sustain rallies above the handle with a ¥88/92 range persisting for most of 2023.
  • Technically the trend is bullish, the 20-Day EMA has crossed the 200-Day EMA signalling more potential upside. Bulls look to sustain the current price action targeting the high 2 May at ¥92.44, this opens ¥93.04 the high from 15 Feb.
  • Bears first target a break below the 200-Day EMA (¥90.84), with ¥89.16 the low from May 4 providing the next support level.
