AUDUSD reached 1.618 projection of the Shoulder-Head-Shoulder pattern and despite there still being downside potential to the 2.00 projection and strong support at around 0.6640 the pair could have run its course. If AUDUSD moves back above the 200 daily Moving Average (SMA) there is a great likelihood it will move back above the Neckline and the 55 SMA. If that scenario plays out AUDUSD has resumed uptrend and could move back in the 0.70-0.71 area.
AUDJPY has been rejected at the 0.93 level multiple times now. That level seems to be too strong for AUDJPY to penetrate. However, AUDJPY seems to have found support at the lower rising trendline and at 0.9125 and might have another go at the 0.93 resistance. A move above could fuel a rally to 0.95-0.9550. Although not massively convincing RSI is showing positive sentiment suggesting AUDJPY will have a new push higher.
However, a break below 0.9125 could fuel a sell-off down to 0.90.
