FxWirePro: 'Possible Bullish Bat' on AUD/JPY, good to short break below 86.77

  • Rising tensions in the Korean Peninsula after N.Korea successfully tested its sixth nuclear bomb.
     
  • Risk-off keeps demand subdued for high-yielding assets and raises safe haven demand for yen.
     
  • We see a possible 'Bullish Bat' formation on AUD/JPY daily charts. The pair has broken below 50-DMA at 87.18.
     
  • Downside now finds next major support at 20-DMA at 86.77. Break below will see drag.
     
  • On the flipside, decisive breakout above daily cloud could see extension on upside till 89.80 (trendline).

Support levels - 87, 86.77 (20-DMA), 86.44 (23.6% Fib retrace of 76.78 to 89.42 rally), 85.70 (Aug 29 low), 85.37 (200-DMA)

Resistance levels - 87.55 (cloud top), 87.94 (Sept 1 high), 88.15 (Feb 15th high), 88.70 (Aug 1 high), 89.80 (trendline)

Recommendation: Good to go short on break below 20-DMA at 86.77, SL: 87.35, TP: 86.45/ 86/ 85.70/ 85.40
