AUD/JPY technicals: Still in wedge consolidation pattern

audjpydailyAUD/JPY is 1.5% higher on the day but a quick look at the daily chart shows us that this pair is still roughly in the middle of a consolidative wedge pattern with parameters at 73.50 and 78.50. Having stalled at a major 61.8% level at 88.00 and then initiated a downtrend, this wedge pattern is expected to break lower rather than higher over the next few weeks. The bearish long term MAs would also suggest more downside.

    Hope all’s well Sean! Remind me next year to switch to weekly/monthly charts in May and enjoy my summer properly ;)

    Hey Zac, don’t forget to switch to monthly charts in May!! And remind me to do exactly the same! Been a leaky few months after an excellent few weeks in April/May- I guess that’s the nature of the beast.

    Japan’s legions of housewives will be lining up to snap up Aussie bucks in the low 70′s. Through August they’ve been buying according to TFX data. (http://www.tfx.co.jp/mkinfo/document/fx_sellbuy.xls)
    From a fundamental POV I favour the upside myself, unless things in the US get really shocking or China has a meltdown. Both entirely possible of course.
