1. AUDJPY Daily Outlook May 11, 2026 — Aussie-Yen Tests 114.00 Resistance as AUD Dominates
The AUDJPY daily outlook for May 11, 2026 is bullish. The pair opened Monday at 113.095 and has rallied to a session high of exactly 114.000 — the key psychological round number and weekly resistance level. Currently trading at 113.981, just below the 114.000 ceiling, AUDJPY is testing the level that has capped upside for the past two weeks. The AUDJPY price forecast for May 11, 2026 is for a continued test of 114.000 and a potential breakout above this level during the NY session, with the 114.318–114.718 zone as the next target cluster.
Today’s price action reflects the ongoing battle between AUD bullishness (driven by improved risk sentiment and RBA hawkishness) and JPY strength (BOJ normalisation). Monday’s strong 90-pip rally from 113.095 to 114.000 shows AUD winning the intraday battle. From an ICT perspective, the 114.000 round number is a BSL (buy-side liquidity) magnet — price is drawn toward it and today is testing it for the first time as a breakout attempt.
