AUD/JPY Price action

On Monday, the AUD/JPY pair tested the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA)at 89.93 but could not hold to its gains above the latter. Additionally, it tested an upslope previous support trendline and turned resistance, which capped AUD/JPY’s upward move. Oscillators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at bullish territory shifted flat, suggesting buyers are taking a respite. The Rate of Change (RoC) portrays that buying pressure is cooling. Hence, the AUD/JPY might consolidate in the near term.

The AUD/JPY must crack the 50-day EMA and the 90.00 figure for a bullish continuation. Once cleared, the AUD/JPY could test the 100-day EMA at 90.78 before approaching the 200-day EMA at 91.04. In an alternate scenario, a bearish one, the AUD/JPY first support would be the 20-day EMA at 89.04. Break below, and the AUD/JPY will head toward the week’s low of 88.55, ahead of challenging 88.00.

GBP/USD slides below 1.3250 after failing to break through 23.6% Fibo

The GBP/USD pair meets with a fresh supply during the Asian session on Wednesday and moves away from a nearly two-week high around the 1.3275 region, touched the previous day. Spot prices currently trade around the 1.3235 zone, down 0.20% for the day, as traders look to speeches from Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey and Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh for a fresh impetus.

Gold sticks to bearish bias below $4,000 amid Fed hike bets and Iran risks

Gold attracts fresh sellers following the previous day's good two-way price swings, and weakens further below the $4,000 psychological mark through the Asian session. This marks the third straight day of a slide and keeps the precious metal closer to its lowest level since November 2025. Moreover, a bullish US Dollar suggests that the path of least resistance for the bullion is to the downside.
