  • The safe haven Japanese Yen strengthened amid risk aversion, while Aussie, a proxy for China, declined
     
  • Immediate support is located at 82.50 (Sep 8 low), under which the pair could extend losses to 82.20 (Sep 7 low), while resistance is seen at 83.82 (day's high) ahead of  84.43 (5-DMA)
     
  • Techs point lower, RSI on daily and weekly charts below 50 confirm further downside for the pair 
     
  • Due later in the week are ChinaCaixn Manufacturing PMI's along with NBS Manufacturing data and U.S. Nonfarm Payrolls which could influence the pair
