AUD/JPY -Technical Analysis- H4 chart

The chart shows that the price after being bearish and breaching the simple moving average 30’s support had a bounce at 96.050. The price had a bullish correction. As of writing, it is having consolidation around the SMA 30’s resistance. Notably, the level of 96.800 has been working as a horizontal resistance as well. Thus, the sellers may wait for the chart to produce a bearish reversal to go short in the pair. The price may find its next support around 95.450.

On the contrary, if the price breaches the horizontal level and produces a bullish reversal afterwards, the buyers may take over and push the price towards the North. The price may find its next resistance around 97.550.

Price Action Analysis- H1 Chart

The chart shows that the level of 96.800 has been a very significant level. The price reacted at this level several times. Recently, it had rejection twice at the level. At the second rejection, it produced a bearish engulfing candle. It may attract the sellers to go short and drive the price towards the South. The price may find its support around 96.000.

On the upside, if the price breaches the horizontal level and produces a bullish reversal pattern, the buyers may push the price towards the upside. In that case, it may find its resistance around 97.200.

Considering both charts, it seems that the bear has an upper hand since significant resistances are still working for the bear. However, a bullish breakout may change the entire scenario.
