Daily Pivots: (S1) 150.23; (P) 151.35; (R1) 152.16; More…
GBP/JPY surges to as high as 152.93 so far today. Breach of 152.82 resistance argues that medium term rally is resuming. Intraday bias is back on the upside. Sustained trading above 152.93 will pave the way to 61.8% projection of 139.29 to 152.82 from 146.96 at 155.32. On the downside, though, break of 150.57 minor support will dampen the bullish view and turn bias neutral first.
In the bigger picture, medium term rebound from 122.36 is still expected to resume after consolidation from 152.82 completes. Firm break of 38.2% retracement of 196.85 to 122.36 at 150.43 will carry long term bullish implications. In that case, GBP/JPY could target 61.8% retracement at 167.78. However, break of 46.96 support will indicate rejection from 150.43 key fibonacci level. And the three wave corrective structure of rebound from 122.36 will argue that larger down trend is resuming for a new low below 122.26.
