FxWirePro: AUD/JPY breaks-out trend-line resistance, both momentum and trend indicators substantiate, major trend still edgy below 38.2% Fibos

The minor trend of AUDJPY has spiked off above DMAs with bullish MACD and DMA crossovers with healthy momentum.

Amid this process, it has managed to break-out trendline resistance decisively, observe the candle with the big real body (refer circular area on daily chart).

Both leading oscillators (RSI and stochastic curves) evidence upward convergence that signal the strength and bullish momentum in the uptrend.

To substantiate this stance, both lagging indicators (DMA and MACD) show bullish crossovers to indicate the uptrend to prolong further.

On the contrary, bears in the major trend form hanging man, shooting star, gravestone doji and bearish engulfing pattern candlesticks at 87.380, 88.097, 87.937 and 82.783 levels respectively (refer monthly plotting). You may see mild rallies on this timeframe but these upswings seem to be edgy as they struggle for momentum.

For now, more slumps seem to be on cards upon failure swings near 7EMA.

Moreover, bearish EMA & MACD crossovers are in conformity to the extension of the downtrend. While both leading oscillators signal mounting bearish momentum.

Overall, AUDJPY major trend that was in the consolidation phase from the lows of 72.437 since June 2016 retraced almost more than 50% Fibonacci level. But for now, by bears repeating the history near stiff resistance levels of 90.254. Despite mild rallies that seem to be edgy below 38.2% Fibonacci levels, the major downtrend has resumed.

As a result, the current price has gone below EMAs on monthly terms.

Contemplating above stated technical reasoning, on speculative grounds we advise buying one touch binary call options, using upper strikes at 83.392 levels.
