AUD/JPY flat awaiting Aussie jobs data

According to IFRMarkets analyst Richard Sexton the “pullback should extend towards support at 91.30/40,” after last price extension left the cross “vulnerable to profit taking,” Sexton added. The cross is down more than -1% for the day, while still in the positive for the week so far, with Nikkei index slightly lower down -0.23% and Australian ASX in the positive +0.27% as odds for a further RBA rate cut next month have now increased after today's jobs data.
