FxWirePro: AUD/JPY breaks 200-DMA at 85.89, bias higher, stay long

• Aussie remains bid on surprise positive data and hawkish tone in RBA statement.
   
• Earlier today data released showed the October retail sales registered at 0.5% m/m, beating expectations of 0.3% vs previous 0.1% revised from 0.0%.
   
• The Reserve Bank of Australia kept the cash rate (interest rate) unchanged as expected but sounded a little bit hawkish on inflation.
   
• The central bank has omitted the line - "inflation is likely to remain low for some time". Further, it says the Australian dollar remains within a range of the past two years.
   
• AUD/JPY reversed previous session's dip to spike past 200-DMA and hit 86 handle.
   
• Technical studies are bullish and we see scope for further upside.
   
• Close above 200-DMA could see further upside, scope then for test of 38.2% Fib at 86.93.
   
• On the other side, rejection at 200-DMA could see resumption of weakness.
