AUD/JPY Drops on Worse Than Expected CPI

The Australian CPI rose 1.8 percent for the year which was lower than 2 percent expectation. The data hurt the AUD and it made a direct drop to W L4 with an extension to 87.78. At this point shorting on rallies is the option. Short term scalps could come around 88.08 while positional short trades could come at the POC zone 88.25-40 (D L4/L5, W L3, Order block, EMA89, trend line, ATR pivot, 50.0 Fib). There is a lot of confluence at the POC so a rejection should target 88.05, 87.80 and 87.50 that is W L5 camarilla pivot.
