AUD/JPY - price action has established 85.00 levels as strong support
|AUD/JPY cross staged a rebound from near 85.00 levels for the third straight session, although the upside is being capped around 85.30 levels.
The Japanese Yen outperformed the Aussie amid the unwinding of the Trump trade. Consequently, the AUD/JPY cross enjoyed a three-week losing streak
However, the bearish momentum ran out of steam at 85.00 levels in the previous two sessions. A similar exhaustion has been seen today as the cross recovered from the low of 85.05 to 85.25 levels.
The Aussie data calendar is thin; hence the cross remains the mercy of the broader market action - unwinding of Trump trade”.
