AUD/JPY Price Analysis: Slumps below 94.00 after reaching weekly highs nearby 95.00

AUD/JPY faces resistance from Tenkan and Kijun-Sen lines, currently trading just above at 93.93.
Downside potential targets include the bottom of the Ichimoku Cloud at 93.45 and the 93.00 psychological level.
On the upside, reclaiming 94.00 could see challenges at the August 15 high (94.86) and the Kumo top near 95.00/05.

The AUD/JPY retraces from weekly highs reached during Tuesday’s session at around 94.86, prolonging its losses after cracking a five-month-old upslope support trendline that intersects with the 94.00 mark. At the time of writing, the AUD/JPY is trading at 93.93, down by a minimal 0.01%.

AUD/JPY Price Analysis: Technical outlook

The daily chart portrays the AUD/JPY pair as subdued, capped on the downside by the Tenkan and Kijun-Sen lines at 93.92 and 93.82. If AUD/JPY slides past that area, the next support will emerge at the bottom of the Ichimoky Cloud (Kumo) at 93.45 before challenging 93.00.

Conversely, if AUD/JPY buyers reclaim the 94.00 figure, the first resistance would be the August 15 high of 94.86 ahead of testing the top of the Kumo at around 95.00/05. Once cleared, the next resistance would emerge at 95.83, the July 31 daily high.
