Like you, I was also interested in the disparity in performance between EUR/USD trades and AUD/JPY trades. While this was not something covered in the DailyFX study, I have a few humble theories of my own. First, EUR/USD is the first pair that most people who are new to forex tend to start out trading. People usually don't branch out to trading a pair like AUD/JPY until they have developed their skills and knowledge. Second, AUD/JPY tends to trend nicely, while EUR/USD is choppier. Just look at the two chart below covering the same time frame.

Thanks Jason - that was worth knowing. I think I will keep this one on my watch list
