AUD/JPY is now just starting to stabalise and AUD/USD remains robust with bulls in control at the start of the week while the dollar remains out of favor with the market that is long the Trump/Fed trade still that has been unwinding over the last few weeks this year. The Yen will continue to be under demand as the Vix and volatility in markets dominate throughout uncertain times and paints  a neutral to bearish outlook for the risk-barometer that is the cross.  AUD/USD: Trump fuelled a sell-off in the greenback, but dollar could bounce back

A break below 86.00 and 85.50/60 would clear a test for the 0.85 handle and recent lows of Jan 17th, a robust support line guarding the last December lows of 2016 at 83.73. 82.50 and 15th nov highs is the high of 9th Nov rally from below the ascending channel from 76.77. To the upside, 87.56 is the 15th Dec high.
