h2 GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 155.10; (P) 155.88; (R1) 156.90;

Intraday bias in GBP/JPY remains on the downside for 151.64 low. The larger decline from 195.86 could be resuming and break of 151.64 will target next long term fibonacci level at 147.01. On the upside, above 158.48 will turn bias neutral first. Overall, outlook will stays bearish as long as 164.09 resistance holds and downside breakout is still expected.

In the bigger picture, fall from 195.86 medium term is viewed as a corrective move. There is no confirmation of completion yet and GBP/JPY might still target 61.8% retracement of 116.83 to 195.86 at 147.01. We'll start to look for reversal signal below there. However, break of 164.09 will suggests that decline is finished and open up the case for rebound to 61.8% retracement of 195.86 to 151.64 at 178.96 and above.
