GBP/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook
Despite retreating, the uptrend on the GBP/JPY remains intact. However, a pullback is on the cards after forming a ‘bearish engulfing’ candle chart pattern that could send the pair drifting lower. Still, a break below the May 14 low of 194.22 is required for further confirmation that the pair is extending its losses.
In that outcome, the next support would be the Tenkan.sen at 193.31, ahead of the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 192.32.
Conversely, if GBP/JPY reverses its course and buyers reclaim 195.00, the next resistance would be the 196.00 figure, followed by the May 14 peak of 196.39. Further gains are seen if the latter is cleared, with 197.00 emerging as the next potential ceiling level.
