The trend set-up in AUDUSD remains bullish. Recent fresh cycle highs reinforce the bull theme and confirm a resumption of the uptrend. Note that moving average studies are in a bull-mode position and this set-up continues to highlight a dominant medium-term uptrend. Potential is seen for a climb towards 0.7186 next, a Fibonacci projection. On the downside, initial key support is unchanged at 0.6897, the Feb 6 low.

The latest move higher in EURJPY leaves a key support at 181.74, the base of a bull channel drawn from the Feb 28 ‘25 low, intact for now. A clear break of this channel base would highlight a stronger reversal and signal scope for a deeper retracement. Resistance to watch is 183.09, the 20-day EMA. Clearance of the average would instead signal a potential short-term reversal and the start of a fresh bull cycle inside the channel.

• SUP 3: 151.54 Low Oct 29 ‘25
• SUP 4: 149.67 50.0% of the Apr 22 ‘25 - Jan 14 bull cycle

USDJPY is holding on to its recent gains and continues to trade above key short-term support at 152.10, the Jan 27 low and bear trigger. Clearance of this level is required to highlight a stronger reversal and resume the bear cycle that started Jan 14. The bounce has resulted in a break of the 20-day EMA and price has pierced the 50-day EMA, at 155.31. A continuation higher would highlight a stronger reversal and open 156.29, the Feb 10 high.
