A temporary top is in place at 142.22 and intraday bias in GBP/JPY is turned neutral first. Further rise is expected as long as 137.35 minor support holds. On the upside, above 142.22 will extend the rebound from 131.51 to 143.93 resistance first. Break will pave the way to 149.48 resistance next.

In the bigger picture, corrective medium term rise from 122.36 (2016 low) has completed at 156.69 (2018 high) already. That came after failing to break through 55 month EMA. No change in this view. Strong rebound from 131.51 argues that fall from 156.59 is just the second leg of the corrective pattern from 122.36. Break of 149.38 resistance will confirm the third leg has started to 159.69, and possibly above. Nevertheless, break of 131.51 will pave the way to retest 122.26 low.

GBP/JPY’s rise from 131.51 extended to as high as 142.22 last week and broke 139.88 resistance. Such rebound turned out to be stronger than originally expected. For now, further rise is expected as long as 137.35 minor support holds. Rebound from 131.51 will target 1423.93 resistance first. Break will pave the way to 149.48 resistance next.

In the longer term picture, rejection by 55 month EMA is seen as a bearish signal. And fall from 195.86 (2015 high) should still be in progress. Break of 122.26 should confirm this bearish case and send GBP/JPY through 116.83 low.

GBP/JPY’s rebound from 131.51 turns out to be stronger than expected and reaches as high as 142.22 so far. Firm break of 139.88 resistance is taken as the first sign of larger reversal. Intraday bias is back on the upside for 143.93 resistance first. Sustained break will pave the way to 149.48 resistance next. On the downside, break of 137.35 support is now needed to confirm completion of the rebound. Otherwise, risk will stay on the upside in case of retreat.

GBP/JPY attempts to resume the rebound from 131.51 but cannot sustain above 139.88 resistance so far. Intraday bias remains neutral first. Sustained trading above 139.88 will dampen our bearish view and bring stronger rise to 143.93 resistance next. Nevertheless, reversal from current level, followed by 137.35 support will confirm completion of rebound from 131.51. Intraday bias will be turned back to the downside for retesting 131.51 low.

In the bigger picture, corrective medium term rise from 122.36 (2016 low) has completed at 156.69 already. That came after failing to break through 55 month EMA.

And this will now remain the preferred case as long as 139.88 support turned resistance holds. Sustained break of 139.88 will mix up the outlook and we’ll reassess on the final structure of the rebound from 131.51.

GBP/JPY dips mildly today but stays above 137.35 minor support. Intraday bias remains neutral for the moment. We’d continue to expect strong resistance from 139.88 to limit upside to complete the rebound from 131.51 short term bottom.

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY is neutral for some consolidations. But upside should be limited by 138.04 resistance to bring fall resumption.

GBP/JPY’s fall accelerates to as low as 137.44 so far today. 139.29 key support is firmly taken out with no sign of bottoming yet. Intraday bias remains on the downside for 135.43 long term fibonacci level next. On the upside, break of 140.93 resistance is needed to indicate short term bottoming. Otherwise, outlook will remain bearish even in case of recovery.

In the bigger picture, firm break of 139.29 cluster support (50% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 139.47) confirms completion of up trend from 122.36 (2016 low) at 156.59. Outlook is now turned bearish for 61.8% retracement at 135.43 first. Sustained break will pave the way back to 122.36 low.

GBP/JPY’s decline resumed by taking out 139.59 and intraday bias is back on the downside. Focus is now on 139.29/47 key support zone. Decisive break there will carry larger bearish implication. 135.43 long term fibonacci level will be next target. On the upside, though, break of 140.94 resistance will be the first sign on near term reversal. Intraday bias will be turned back to the upside for 143.93 resistance first.

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral for consolidation above 139.59 temporary low. Another rebound cannot be ruled out. But near term outlook will stay bearish as long as 143.93 resistance holds.

However, decisive break of 139.29/47 will suggest that such up trend is completed and turn outlook bearish. In that case, next target is 61.8% retracement at 135.43.
