AUD/JPY Price Forecast: Remains below 97.00, support appears at nine-day EMA

  • AUD/JPY may find primary resistance at the six-month high of 97.40.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index remains above the 50 mark, strengthening bullish bias.
  • The nine-day EMA of 96.50 appears at the immediate support.

AUD/JPY edges lower after two days of losses, trading around 96.90 during the Asian hours on Friday. The technical analysis of the daily chart shows that the currency cross remains within the ascending channel pattern, suggesting a prevailing bullish bias.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is remaining above the 50 mark, strengthening bullish sentiment. Additionally, the AUD/JPY cross is positioned above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), indicating short-term price momentum is stronger.

On the upside, the AUD/JPY cross may target the six-month high at 97.40, which was recorded on July 15, followed by the upper boundary of the ascending channel around 98.00. A successful breach above the channel could reinforce the bullish bias and prompt the currency cross to approach the psychological level of 99.00.

The AUD/JPY cross may find immediate support at the nine-day EMA of 96.51, followed by the ascending channel’s lower boundary around 96.10. A successful break below the channel would weaken the short-term price momentum and put downward pressure on the currency cross to target the 50-day EMA at 94.96.
