FxWirePro: AUD/JPY bounces off daily cloud support, intraday bias higher

  • AUD/JPY has bounced off support by daily cloud top at 85.77 on March 9th, bias higher.
     
  • We see stiff resistance at 87 (falling trendline), break above could see further upside.
     
  • Downside is holding above major support by 50-DMA at 86.17, weakness only on break below.
     
  • The ongoing weakness in the yen is mainly driven by the risk-on sentiment amid higher Asian indices and treasury yields.
     
  • Markets believe that the US payrolls data would paint a better picture of the US labor markets, prompting the Fed to hike rates as early as next week.

Support levels - 86.37 (5-DMA), 86.17 (50-DMA), 85.78 (cloud top)

Resistance levels - 87 (falling trendline), 87.48 (March 7 high), 88
