AUD/JPY Technical Analysis: bullish bias intact despite a below-forecast China retail sales reading
|- The AUD/JPY is struggling to beat the 100-day simple moving average (SMA) hurdle, possibly due to a weaker-than-expected China retail sales reading.
- The path of least resistance, however, is still on the higher side as the pair has charted higher lows in the last 24 hours, having witnessed a falling channel breakout on Monday.
- The bullish view would be invalidated if the JPY cross violates the lower highs setup with a move below 81.88 (Nov. 13 low on the hourly chart).
