GBPJPY: GBP's Decline!Following the release of ONS data, there was a significant decrease in UK government bond yields as traders adjusted their expectations for future interest rate hikes. Prior to the release, financial markets anticipated a terminal UK Bank Rate surpassing 6%, higher than the current rate of 5%. However, these projections declined to approximately 5.75% during the morning, resulting in a notable drop in UK 2-year Gilt yields that are sensitive to interest rates. Considering that inflation is predicted to decline further in July due to a reduced Ofgem Energy Price Cap, it is plausible that peak rates have already been observed in the United Kingdom.

Gbp Jpy Short GBP/JPY is experiencing a bearish pullback within the 183.030 - 183.183 - 183.420 range, signaling a potential decline in the pair. Traders should closely monitor the following technical and fundamental factors to capitalize on this short trading opportunity. Technical Analysis: Bearish Pullback: The recent price action shows a bearish pullback from the 183.420 resistance level, suggesting a potential shift in market sentiment and an opportunity for short positions. Retesting Support: The pair is retesting the 183.030 support level, which has previously acted as a significant barrier. A decisive break below this level could trigger further selling pressure. Fundamental Analysis: GBP Weakness: The British Pound is facing challenges due to ongoing uncertainties surrounding Brexit and the UK's economic recovery. Geopolitical concerns and global market sentiment also contribute to the overall weakness of the GBP. Risk Aversion: The Japanese Yen tends to appreciate during periods of market volatility and risk aversion. As investors seek safe-haven assets, demand for the JPY may increase, putting pressure on GBP/JPY. Risk Management: To manage risks effectively: Stop Loss: Traders should consider placing a stop-loss order above the recent swing high near 183.420 to protect against potential bullish reversals. Target Price: Profit-taking targets may be set around the 183.030 support level or lower, depending on the trader's risk tolerance and market conditions. Conclusion: The bearish pullback in GBP/JPY within the 183.030 - 183.183 - 183.420 range presents an attractive short trading opportunity. However, traders should exercise caution and adhere to strict risk management principles. Monitoring price action closely and staying informed about any significant developments that could impact the pair's direction are vital for making informed trading decisions. As with any trade, unexpected events and shifts in market sentiment should be considered, and positions may need to be adjusted accordingly.

GBPJPY - SHORT; Looking for a Top hereThe Pound found itself rather unimpressed on the heels of the recent inflation data prints. Speculation abound whether there is one more rate hike left in the BoE, before long? (Likely.) Even so, everything (including the kitchen sink) has already been factored into the Pound crosses thus, any short fall in inflation prints from here on out are likely to have severe (down side) consequences! This pair has been quite overextended, already, above 170.00. The EUR/GBP is showing signs of an intermediate bottom, following its recent drop. (Thus, if anything this is the pair to look for Shorts, vs. the EURJPY.) Overall, both pairs EUR/JPY and this one, GBP/JPY are somewhere very close to a (very!) long term top, e.g., both pairs are deserving some unmitigated attention at this point. Looking for Short Entries here Here is the Daily view; ... and here is the EURGBP;

GBPJPY: Today!The release of new data from the ONS caused a significant drop in UK government bond yields as traders adjusted their expectations for future interest rate increases. Prior to the release, financial markets were anticipating a final UK Bank Rate of over 6%, but these expectations decreased to around 5.75% during the morning, resulting in a sharp decline in UK 2-year Gilt yields, which are sensitive to interest rates. Given the projected decrease in inflation in July, thanks to a lower Ofgem Energy Price Cap, it is possible that the UK has already experienced its highest interest rates.

GBPJPY: In the short term, the technical outlook for GBP/JPY remains negative as indicated by the daily chart, which shows the pair declining from its recent multi-year high. The pair has experienced a significant rally of nearly 18% this year due to loose Japanese monetary policy and tightening UK monetary policy. However, there may be a change in the latter as today's inflation data suggests that July's inflation reading will be even lower. This is likely due to the implementation of the Ofgem energy price cap, which has been reduced from £2,500 to £2,074.
