AUD/JPY extends its gains for the second successive session, trading around 93.60 during early European hours on Friday. A technical analysis of the daily chart shows that the currency cross remains within an ascending channel pattern, confirming a sustained bullish bias.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) moves above the 50 level, reinforcing the bullish sentiment. Additionally, the AUD/JPY cross continues to trade above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), indicating strong short-term price momentum.
On the upside, the AUD/JPY cross could approach the three-month high at 95.65, which was marked on May 13. A break above this level could reinforce the bullish bias and support the pair to explore the region around the upper boundary of the ascending channel at 99.40.
The AUD/JPY cross is testing the immediate support at the nine-day EMA of 93.05, aligned with the ascending channel’s lower boundary. A break below the channel could cause the emergence of the bearish bias and put downward pressure on the currency cross to test the six-week low at 91.65, recorded on May 23.
