AUD/JPY Price Analysis: Recovers from last week’s lows, faces resistance at 95.00

AUD/JPY rises to a two-day high of 94.90, though it remains in a consolidation phase, with a mild bullish bias above the Ichimoku Cloud.
Immediate resistance set at the 95.00 level; surpassing this could challenge the 96.00 mark.
Support levels to watch include the top of the Kumo at 94.31 and the psychological 94.00 mark.

AUD/JPY bounced off last week’s lows, confluence with the bottom of the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo) at around 94.00, and rose to a two-day high of 94.90 on Monday amidst a risk-on impulse. As Tuesday’s Asian session begins, the pair exchanges hands at 94.78, dips a minimal 0.03%.

the AUD/JPY pair remains in consolidation, unable to break below/above the 93.00/96.40 range, though as price action remains above the Kumo, the bias is mildly bullish. Therefore, the first resistance would be the 95.00 figure. A breach of the latter would expose the psychological 96.00 mark, followed by the top of the aforementioned resistance level at 96.40 and the year-to-date (YTD) high of 97.67.

On the flip side, the AUD/JPY first support would be the top of the Kumo at 94.31, followed by the 94.00 figure. Once cleared, the cross would die towards the October 3 daily low of 93.01.

AUD/USD consolidates above 0.7000; remains close to monthly top

AUD/USD holds steady above 0.7000 during the Asian session on Friday, trading just below the previous day's monthly low amid diverging forces. A hawkish RBA continues to support the Aussie, while the recent decline in US bond yields keeps the US Dollar depressed near a three-week low. However, oil-driven inflation fears reinforce Fed hike bets, which, along with geopolitical risks, could benefit the safe-haven buck and cap the currency pair.

USD/JPY drops to an over one-month low, around 156.00 after Japan's CPI report

USD/JPY attracts heavy follow-through selling on Friday, dropping to the 156.00 neighborhood, a one-month low, as Japan's National CPI report reaffirms bets for an imminent BoJ rate hike and boosts the Japanese Yen. Moreover, the recent steep fall in US bond yields counters hawkish Fed expectations and geopolitical risks, undermining the US Dollar and exerting additional pressure on the currency pair.

Gold seems vulnerable near August lows; eyes $4,000 break amid Fed hike bets

Gold touches a fresh low since early August during the Asian session on Friday, eyeing the key $4,000 psychological mark. Oil-driven inflation fears reinforce December Fed hike bets and continue to undermine the non-yielding bullion, which fails to benefit from the recent steep fall in US bond yields and the prevailing US Dollar selling bias. Moreover, the overnight breakdown below a trading-range support backs the case for further depreciation.

Bitcoin falls 4% as chip stocks plunge 6.7% and oil surges

Bitcoin (BTC) fell below $82,000 on Thursday as the crypto market joined a broader market sell-off driven by concerns over artificial intelligence (AI) spending, rising oil prices and escalating geopolitical tensions involving the US and Iran. The top crypto fell 4% to $81,130 as macro fears weighed on prices across the digital asset market.

The Bank of England just got its clearest reason to hike. Here's what it's really watching

UK inflation as measured by the CPI accelerated to 3.5% YoY in September, up from 3.1% in August, according to the Office for National Statistics. This is the highest level since October 2025, exceeding economists' expectations of 3.4% and pushing inflation further from the BoE's 2% target.

What November 3 means for the Fed's rate path and the US Dollar

The USD faces a decisive period ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. While markets anticipate another interest rate increase from the Fed in December, the battle for control of Congress could reshape fiscal policy expectations and, indirectly, the path of US monetary policy in 2027.
