GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 140.23; (P) 140.90; (R1) 141.44; More…

Focus remains on 141.50 resistance in GBP/JPY. Decisive break there will confirm resumption of rise from 126.54. Intraday bias will be turned to the upside for trend line resistance (now at 143.88). For now, near term outlook will remain bullish as long as 139.36 support holds. However, break of 139.36 will turn bias to the downside for deeper pull back to 135.74 resistance turned support.

In the bigger picture, consolidation pattern from 122.75 (2016 low) is still in progress with rise from 126.54 as the third leg. Further rise should be seen back to 148.87/156.59 resistance zone. For now, we’d expect strong resistance from there to limit upside. And, this will remain the favored case as long as 135.74 resistance turned support holds.
