GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 158.99; (P) 160.01; (R1) 161.98;

With 162.80 resistance intact, outlook in GBP/JPY stays bearish. The larger down trend is expected to resume later. Break of 153.64 will target 151.64. Break of 151.64 will extend the larger down trend to next long term fibonacci level at 147.01. However, sustained break of 162.80 will be the first sign of trend reversal and target 164.09 resistance.

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.
