USD/JPY trades at 159.359 after gaining 41 pips from Monday's open, with Tokyo inflation data and US GDP the key tests ahead.
AUDUSD closed Wednesday at 0.71493, down 72 pips from Monday's 0.71565 open. The pair touched 0.71815 early in the week before sliding to 0.71488, marking a 327-pip range over the first three sessions.
The People's Bank of China set its USD/CNY midpoint well above market estimates on Wednesday. This wider-than-expected fixing signaled tolerance for yuan weakness, lifting the dollar across the board and pressuring commodity currencies like the Australian dollar.
With no major data releases scheduled for Thursday or Friday, AUDUSD will likely track broader dollar flows and risk sentiment. If the dollar maintains its bid, 0.71488 becomes the immediate support. A recovery above 0.7170 would suggest buyers are defending the round number.
Traders are split almost evenly with 47.4% long and 52.6% short as of Wednesday morning. This near-balanced positioning suggests the market lacks conviction at current levels, leaving room for sharper moves if 0.7150 gives way or if buyers step in.
The 0.7150 round number sits just above Wednesday's 0.71488 low. If sellers push through this zone, 0.7140 and then 0.7120 come into view. Conversely, a hold above 0.7150 keeps the door open for a test back toward 0.7170.
