AUD/JPY Technical Analysis: Bulls await ascending triangle breakout

  • The AUD/JPY pair has charted an ascending triangle on the hourly chart.
  • A break above 81.76 (triangle resistance) would signal a continuation of the rally from the low of 80.57 and would open the doors to a sustained rally above 82.00 (psychological level).
  • On the downside, only a daily close above the ascending (bullish) 10-day moving average (MA) of 81.16 would weaken the bullish view.
