AUD/JPY has seen a slight strengthening of the yen since midnight, with heavy buying observed around ¥109 and heavy selling in the middle of the ¥110 range.
Yesterday (12 October 2026), AUD/JPY saw a slight strengthening of the yen. After opening with a gap, the gap was quickly filled, and range-bound trading continued until late at night. After midnight, the yen was slightly stronger, and the pair closed with the yen stronger than at the previous close. There were no major economic data releases in Japan or Australia, and no remarks by officials on Japan-Australia relations were reported.
In today's (13 October 2026) chart analysis, the order book shows buy orders concentrated from the first half of the ¥107 range to the first half of the ¥110 range. There are many buy orders near the current level and in the yen-strength range, with particularly heavy buying around ¥109. By contrast, sell orders are heavy in the middle of the ¥110 range, where trading aimed at that level has been observed, and heavy selling has also been confirmed in the middle of the ¥108 range.
Correlation analysis over the past 24 hours showed strong correlations between AUD/JPY and EUR/JPY and GBP/USD, while GBP/JPY, EUR/USD and AUD/USD were also correlated pairs. USD/JPY, on the other hand, is considered to have a weak inverse correlation. In the latest currency-strength readings, the dollar was the strongest and the Swiss franc the weakest. The yen moved from negative territory to positive after midnight, while the Australian dollar has remained in negative territory since midday.
