Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains neutral for the moment. Rise from 122.36 is seen as a corrective move. Below 142.16 will affirm the case that it’s completed at 148.42. In that case, intraday bias will be turned to the downside for 55 day EMA (now at 140.62) and below. Break of 148.42 will extend the rise from 122.36. But we’d expect strong resistance from 150.43 long term fibonacci level to limit upside.
In the bigger picture, the down trend from 195.86 top (2015 high) should have made a medium term bottom at 122.36 after hitting 100% projection of 195.86 to 154.70 from 163.87 at 122.71. Rise from there is now expected to develop into a medium term corrective pattern. Upside should be limited by 38.2% retracement of 195.86 to 122.36 at 150.4 for setting the medium term range.
