FxWirePro: AUD/JPY holds 20-DMA support, weakness only on break below

  • AUD/JPY halts 2-day losing streak, edges higher after holding major support by 20-DMA.
  • The Japanese yen hit by somewhat bigger-than-expected Japanese trade deficit figures. 
  • The data released today showed a rise in the Japanese trade deficit to JPY 1,086.9 billion in January.
  • Intraday bias is neutral, we see weakness only on break below 20-DMA at 86.40.
  • On the flipside, 5-DMA at 87.20 is major resistance, only decisive break above could see a resumption of upside.
  • Technical studies are inconclusive. Long-term upward trend still intact, we see no signs of reversal.

Support levels - 86.40 (20-DMA), 85.78 (50-DMA), 85.45 (cloud top)

Resistance levels - 87.20 (5-DMA), 87.53 (Dec 15, 2016 high), 88.18 (Feb 16, 2017 high)
