AUD/JPY daily chart

From a broader viewpoint, the AUD/JPY pair hints at a bearish sentiment, especially considering its position below the 20-day SMA support. Should further downward movement occur, the immediate support levels at 106.50 and 106.00 are pivotal marks to consider. Conversely, to mitigate further potential losses, buyers must aim to surpass the 107.00 level (20-day SMA) and aim towards the 108.00 barrier to signal recovery.
