FX:GBPJPY last came to this area back in November 2015. Although there seem to be some form of rejection around the 184.839. It is very possible that the now found support (based on H4) just might hold however I will rather wait for it to break out of the most recent resistance at 185.522 and retest before I take a buy. Equally the short scenario is very possible...

The currency pair is holding firm above the 1.2500 level despite the U.S. Dollar's adjustment.

FX:GBPJPY snaps four days of losses, climbs 0.31% in the late Tuesday North American session, and exchanges hands at around 186.00 after bouncing from daily/weekly lows reached at 184.45. The GBP/JPY daily chart portrays the pair as neutral biased, as the slope of the Tenkan and Kijun-Sen shifted flat, which could open the door for range-bound trading. On the...
The GBP/USD pair garnered buying interest during the Asian trading session on Monday, reaching a three-day high around the 1.2470 region.

The US Dollar (USD) struggles to register...

The UK’s inflation rate due this week (early early Wednesday morning), and there is a huge projected drop in the reading from last month, from 6.7% to 4.8%. This huge drop leaves a lot of room for disappointment, and higher CPI reading could exert upside pressure on the GBPJPY, which is already at a multi-month high. It is for this reason I bring up the...

The ascending trendline, the Fibonacci retracement level of the latest downtrend, the...
