AUD/USD 4H Chart:
As price falls back to 0.9380-0.94 area, look out for buyers especially if the RSI in the 4H chart dips to 40 and stalls. If price starts to turn back above, respecting the 200-, 100-, and 50-period SMAs in the 4H chart, while the RSI also turns up from 40, get ready for a bullish attempt toward the 2014-highs.
A break below 0.9360 should probably shelve the bullish continuation outlook. If your entry is around 0.94, and stop at 0.9370, you have 30 pips of risk, to about 100 pips of reward, a slightly better than 3:1 Reward to risk ratio.
AUD/JPY 4H Chart 7/25
A pullback in AUD/JPY should find support around the 95.20-95.40 area, which was a common support/resistance area. The RSI in the 4H chart should also stall around 40. A break below 95.00 would probably shelve the bullish outlook, so let's say a stop is at 94.90. With en entry at 95.40, that would be 50-pip risk. With the target back to the 96.50 high on the year, the potential reward is 110 pips. This trade idea offers a reward to risk ratio of about 2:1.
Remember that AUD/USD and AUD/JPY are bullish in the daily chart, so the bullish outlook in the 4H chart is in-line with the prevailing trend. However, we should still limit the bullish outlook to the 2014-highs because the latest rally is simply on the back of stronger inflation data. Sure, 3.0% annual CPI inflation should push the RBA to raise rates, but don't be surprised if RBA gov. Glenn Stevens starts jawboning about the risk of a strong AUD, and AUD/USD and AUD/JPY approach the 2014-highs.
