GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 185.18; (P) 185.87; (R1) 186.68; More…

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral at this point. Price actions from 188.63 short term top is seen as a near term consolidation pattern for now. As long as 184.44 support holds, further rally is expected. Decisive break of 188.63 will resume larger up trend. However, firm break of 184.44 will turn bias to the downside for deeper correction back to 178.02 support instead.

In the bigger picture, as long as 184.44 support holds, larger up trend from 123.94 (202 low) should still be in progress, next target is 195.86 (2015 high). However, firm break of 184.44 will now argue that a medium term top is formed, possibly in bearish divergence condition in D MACD, and bring deeper fall back to 178.02 support.

GBP/JPY Weekly Outlook

GBP/JPY’s rally from 155.33 resumed last week but retreated again after hitting 166.82. Initial bias is neutral this week for consolidations first. Outlook will stay cautiously bullish as long as 162.75 support holds. Above 166.82 will resume the larger rebound from 155.33 to 169.26 resistance next.

In the bigger picture, as long as 38.2% retracement of 123.94 (2020 low) to 172.11 (2022 high) at 153.70 holds, medium term bullishness is retained. That is, larger up trend from 123.94 (2020 low) is still in progress. Break of 172.11 high to resume such up trend is expected at a later stage.

In the longer term picture, as long as 55 M EMA (now at 153.64) holds, rise from 122.75 (2016 low) could still extend higher at a later stage to 195.86 (2015 high).

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 141.60; (P) 141.90; (R1) 142.29; More…

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral first and some more consolidation could be seen. Further rise is expected as long as 140.31 support holds. Firm break of 142.23/71 resistance zone will resume whole rise from 123.94 to 147.95 key resistance next. On the downside, though, considering bearish divergence condition in 4 hour MACD, break of 140.31 will confirm short term topping at 142.34, and rejection by 142.71. Intraday will will be turned back to the downside for 139.96 support next.

In the bigger picture, rise from 123.94 is seen 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.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 145.07; (P) 145.75; (R1) 146.53; More…

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains on the downside. Current fall from 156.59 is in progress for 143.51 medium term fibonacci level next. We’ll look for bottoming signal there. But firm break will target 139.29 support. On the upside, above 147.47 minor resistance will turn intraday bias neutral first. But outlook will remain bearish as long as 150.92 resistance holds, in case of recovery.

In the bigger picture, the case for medium term reversal continues to build up. There is bearish divergence condition in daily MACD. 146.96 support was taken out. And GBP/JPY was rejected by 55 month EMA. Break of 38.2% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 143.51 will pave the way to 61.8% retracement at 135.43 and below. This will now be the preferred case as long as 150.92 resistance holds.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 147.97; (P) 148.29; (R1) 148.91; More…

GBP/JPY’s rally accelerates to as high as 150.95 so far, taking out 147.95 medium term resistance without much hesitation. Intraday bias stays on the upside. Current up trend from 123.94 should now target 100% projection of 123.94 to 142.71 from 133.03 at 151.80 next. On the downside, below 147.52 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral and bring consolidations first, before staging another rally.

In the bigger picture, rise from 123.94 is seen as the third leg of the sideway pattern from 122.75 (2016 low). With 147.95 resistance taken out, further rally would now be seen to 156.59 resistance (2018 high), Sustained break there should confirm long term bullish trend reversal. On the downside, break of 142.71 resistance turned support is needed to be the first sign of completion of the rise from 123.94. Otherwise, outlook will remain bullish even in case of deep pull back.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 152.54; (P) 153.14; (R1) 153.51; More…

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral for consolidation below 153.83 temporary top. In case of another retreat, downside should be contained by 151.15 minor support to bring rise resumption. Above 153.83 will extend the rally from 144.97 and target to retest 156.96 high. However, break of 151.15 will suggest that such rebound from 144.97 has completed and bring retest of this support.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 156.59 are viewed as a corrective pattern. For now, we’d expect at least one more fall for 38.2% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 143.51 before the consolidation completed. Though, firm break of 156.59 will resume whole up trend from 122.36 (2016 low) to 50% retracement of 195.86 (2015high) to 122.36 at 159.11 next.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 148.53; (P) 149.15; (R1) 149.75; More….

No change in GBP/JPY’s outlook. Recovery from 144.97 might extend higher. But still, it’s seen as a corrective move. Therefore, we’d expect strong resistance from 150.92 (50% retracement of 156.59 to 144.97 at 150.78) to bring fall resumption. On the downside, below 147.03 will bring retest of 144.97 low first. Break will extend the decline from 156.59 to 143.51 medium term fibonacci level next. However, sustained break of 150.92 will pave the way back to retest 156.69 high.

In the bigger picture, the case for medium term reversal continues to build up. There is bearish divergence condition in daily MACD. 146.96 support was taken out. And GBP/JPY was rejected by 55 month EMA. Break of 38.2% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 143.51 will pave the way to 61.8% retracement at 135.43 and below. This will now be the preferred case as long as 150.92 resistance holds.

GBP/JPY Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 148.53; (P) 149.15; (R1) 149.75; More….

GBP/JPY drops sharply after hitting 150.29 but it’s holding above 147.03 minor support so far. Intraday bias is neutral first. While another rise cannot be ruled out, we maintain the view that rebound from 144.97 is a corrective move. Therefore, strong resistance is expected from 150.92 (50% retracement of 156.59 to 144.97 at 150.78) to bring fall resumption. On the downside, below 147.03 will bring retest of 144.97 low first. Break will extend the decline from 156.59 to 143.51 medium term fibonacci level next. However, sustained break of 150.92 will pave the way back to retest 156.69 high.

In the bigger picture, the case for medium term reversal continues to build up. There is bearish divergence condition in daily MACD. 146.96 support was taken out.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 133.66; (P) 134.86; (R1) 135.91; More…

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains on the downside as fall from 139.73 short term top is in progress. Sustained trading below 55 day EMA (now at 134.32) will argue that whole rebound from 123.94 has completed. Fall from 139.73 should then target 129.27 support to confirm this bearish case. On the upside, though, above 136.04 minor resistance will turn bias back to the upside for retesting 139.73 instead.

In the bigger picture, we’re still seeing price actions from 122.75 (2016 low) are seen as a sideway consolidation pattern. 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.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 130.44; (P) 130.87; (R1) 131.60; More…

Further fall remains in favor in GBP/JPY with 133.18 resistance intact. Corrective rebound from 123.94 should have completed. Deeper decline should be seen to retest 123.94 low. On the upside, break of 133.18 minor resistance will turn bias to the upside for 61.8% retracement of 144.95 to 123.94 at 136.92.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 122.75 (2016 low) are merely a sideway consolidation pattern, which has completed at 147.96. Larger down trend from 195.86 (2015 high) as well as that from 251.09 (2007 high) are possibly resuming. Break of 122.75 should target 61.8% projection of 195.86 to 122.75 from 147.95 at 102.76 next. In any case, outlook will remain bearish as long as 147.95 resistance holds.

GBP/JPY Weekly Outlook

GBP/JPY’s rally from 191.34 continued last week and outlook is unchanged. This rise is still seen as the second leg of the corrective pattern from 200.53. Initial bias stays on the upside for 100% projection of 191.34 to 180.07 from 195.02 at 200.75. But upside should be limited there. On the downside, below 198.25 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral first. Further break of 197.07 will argue that the third leg has started, and target 191.34 support and possibly below.

In the bigger picture, a medium term top could be in place at 200.53 after breaching 199.80 long term fibonacci level. As long as 55 W EMA (now at 183.92) holds, price actions from there is seen as correcting the rise from 178.32 only. However, sustained break of 55 W EMA will argue that larger scale correction is underway and target 178.32 support.

In the longer term picture, rise from 122.75 (2016 low) is seen as the third leg of the pattern from 116.83 (2011 low). Focus is now on 61.8% retracement of 251.09 (2007 high) to 116.83 at 199.80. Decisive break there would pave the way back to 251.09 in the long term.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 143.69; (P) 144.64; (R1) 146.44; More…

GBP/JPY’s rebound from 139.88 is still in progress and reaches as high as 145.67 so far. Intraday bias stays on the upside for trend line resistance (now at 147.04). Firm break there will be a signal of bullish reversal and should target 149.30 resistance for confirmation. On the downside, below 143.65 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral first.

In the bigger picture, at this point decline from 156.59 is still seen as a corrective move. Focus remains on 139.29 cluster support (50% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 139.47). Strong rebound from there will re-affirm the bullish case that rise from 122.36 is still to extend through 156.59 high. However, sustained break of 139.29/47 should confirm medium term reversal. GBP/JPY would then target a retest on 122.26 (2016 low).

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 143.92; (P) 145.06; (R1) 145.80; More…

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains mildly on the downside for 38.2% retracement of 131.51 to 148.57 at 142.05. Break will target 141.00 key support level. Nevertheless, on the upside, break of 146.18 minor resistance will indicate completion of the pull back and turn bias to the upside for 148.57.

In the bigger picture, the strong rebound from 131.51 suggests that medium term fall from 156.59 (2018 high) has completed already. The corrective structure of such decline in turn argues that it’s the second leg of the corrective pattern from 122.36 (2016 low). And this pattern is starting the third leg. On the upside, decisive break of 149.48 will pave the way to 156.59 resistance and above. However, firm break of 141.00 support will dampen this view and turn focus back to 131.51 low instead.

GBP/JPY’s rebound from 143.76 resumed after steep but brief retreat. But upside is limited below 148.10 resistance and momentum is unconvincing as seen in 4 hour MACD. Intraday bias remains neutral first. On the upside, break of 1481.0 will be a strong signal of near term reversal. Further rally would be seen to 149.99 resistance for confirmation. On the downside, break of 145.17 will confirm completion of rebound from 143.76. Intraday bias will be turned back to the downside for retesting 143.17 low. Break will resume the fall from 156.59.

In the bigger picture, no change in the view that decline from 156.59 is a corrective move. In case of another fall, strong support should be seen above 139.29 cluster support (50% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 139.47) to contain downside and bring rebound. Meanwhile, break of 153.84 should confirm that the correction is completed and target 156.59 and above to resume the medium term up trend.

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral at this point. Consolidation from 153.39 could extend further. But outlook will stay bullish as long as 148.50 support holds. On the upside, break of 153.39 will resume the whole rise from 123.94 to 156.59 long term resistance next.

In the bigger picture, rise from 123.94 is seen as the third leg of the pattern from 122.75 (2016 low). Next target is 156.59 resistance (2018 high). Sustained break there should confirm long term bullish trend reversal. On the downside, break of 142.71 resistance turned support is needed to be the first sign of completion of the rise from 123.94. Otherwise, outlook will remain bullish even in case of deep pull back.

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral for some more consolidations. Further decline is expected as long as 136.46 resistance holds. On the downside, break of 133.03 will resume the fall from 142.71 and target 61.8% retracement of 123.94 to 142.71 at 131.11 next. However, firm break of 136.46 will indicate short term bottoming and turn bias back to the upside for stronger rebound.

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.

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral as consolidation from 144.97 continues. In case of stronger rise, upside should be limited by 150.92 (50% retracement of 156.59 to 144.97 at 150.78 to bring fall resumption. Break of 144.97 will extend the decline from 156.59 to 143.51 medium term fibonacci level next.

In the bigger picture, the case for medium term reversal continues to build up. There is bearish divergence condition in daily MACD. 146.96 support was taken out. And GBP/JPY was rejected by 55 month EMA. Break of 38.2% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 143.51 will pave the way to 61.8% retracement at 135.43 and below. This will now be the preferred case as long as 150.92 resistance holds.

GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 162.51; (P) 163.25; (R1) 164.09; More…

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral for the moment. Correction from 168.40 could extend further. IN case of another fall, downside should be contained by 61.8% retracement of 150.95 to 168.40 at 157.61 to bring rebound. On the upside, firm break of 168.40 will resume larger up trend.

In the bigger picture, up trend from 123.94 (2020 low) is still in progress. Sustained break of 61.8% retracement of 195.86 (2015 high) to 122.75 (2016 low) at 167.93 will be a long term bullish signal, and could pave the way back to 195.86 high. This will now remain the favored case as long as 150.95 support holds, even in case of deep pull back.

On the downside, below 189.05 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral and bring consolidations again, before staging another rally.

GBP/JPY’s rally re-accelerates to as high as 143.17 so far. Intraday bias remains on the upside at this point. Sustained break of trend line resistance (now at 143.52) will pave the way to 148.87 key resistance next. On the downside, below 141.81 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral first. But outlook will remain bullish as long as 139.31 support holds, in case of retreat.

In the bigger picture, current rise from 126.54 is seen as the third leg of the consolidation pattern from 122.75 (2016 low). Further rally could be seen but for now, we’d expect strong resistance from 156.59 to limit upside. On the downside, sustained break of 135.74 resistance turned support will suggest that such rebound has completed. Deeper decline could the be seen to retest 126.54 low.
