GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 151.20; (P) 151.75; (R1) 152.40;

Intraday bias in the GBP/JPY remains neutral for the moment. Consolidation from 153.86 might extend with another decline. Below 149.97 will turn bias to the downside. But in that case, downside should be contained above 145.91, and bring rebound. Eventually, we'd expect up trend from 118.82 to resume later by breaking 153.86.

In the bigger picture, medium term fall from 163.05 has already completed at 116.83. It's a bit early to conclude reversal of the long term down trend from 251.09 (2007 high). A rise from 116.83 should at least be a move at the same degree as a fall from 163.05. Medium term rise is now expected back at 163.05. We'll stay bullish as long as 140.37 support holds.
