Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains on the downside at this point, for 133.03 support. Break there will confirm resumption of whole decline from 142.71. Next target will be 61.8% retracement of 123.94 to 142.71 at 131.11. On the upside, 136.55 minor resistance will turn bias back to the upside for 137.83 resistance instead.
In the bigger picture, rise from 123.94 is seen only as a rising leg of the sideway consolidation pattern from 122.75 (2016 low). As long as 147.95 resistance holds, an eventual downside breakout remains in favor. However, firm break of 147.95 will raise the chance of long term bullish reversal. Focus will then be turned to 156.59 resistance for confirmation.
