Do technicals point to more downside for GBPJPY?This most recent week, we saw GBP/JPY following the same bearish direction as the previous three weeks, with its strongest impulse happening during Wednesday's New York session. When looking at the weekly time frame, this pair has been in an uptrend. However, it is fast approaching a breakout of this upwards trendline, which has held prices up for the past couple of years.
Technically we can look at the hourly chart and see the adherence the price showed to the Fibonacci and Exponential Moving Average.
Looking at the most recent hourly range, we see GBPJPY retrace above the week's opening price during Monday's New York session to the 61.8 level. In that area is the EMA indicating another confluence for a move down. Price didn’t return to that area, with only two other weak retracements shown before the sell-off.
Fundamentally speaking, there were no high impact news events for either currency last week. However, the UK has had its hands full with several factors. Brexit issues with Ireland continue, and numbers show the economy shrank at the end of March. Factor in that the Japanese Yen is typically seen as a safe haven, and the bearishness in this pair isn't too surprising.
The coming week for GBPJPY
Looking ahead at this upcoming week, it is full of news events for the GBP, with monetary policy report hearings happening Monday. This is followed by unemployment, CPI numbers, and retail sales later in the week. Of course, the most critical report is CPI, which I released on Wednesday. UK's CPI for April is expected to rise two percentage points to 9%, from 7% in March.
The significant economic report from Japan is released at the end of the week. Japan's April CPI is released on Friday, and the market consensus is that it will rise to 1.5% from 1.2% in the previous reading.
GBP/JPY: IDEAHere is an analysis on GBP/JPY
Currently @ 153.600
We expect the pair to retrace to at least 152.9 which is the 38.2% Fib Ret. before continuing its bullish trend
If the pair falls below 152.9 we'd expect it to test 152.2 and treat this level as support.
The pair is still bullish @ the moment, a bearish move will be confirmed if pair breaks & trade below trendline
GBPJPY - BUY OPPORTUNITY ARISING Hi traders.
Planning on longing GJ if it fails to break above the pink resistance level and also starts to fall back down, towards the green support trend line. If the blue support level holds, I will plan on placing a long trade for this pair.
If this support level does not hold, then I plan on placing a long from the next green support trend line drawn below.

GBPJPY Short IdeaHello traders.
GBPJPY is approaching the red resistance line drawn. I believe we could be looking to enter shorts from this region. I would aim to retest the support trend line drawn within the next day. Would suggest waiting a bit longer until the red resistance or higher is tested to then open a short. I think we may, in an unlikely scenario see a push to the purple trend line before entering a short. I would expect a slow push down. I would recommend taking profits partially once every support/resistance zone is tested.
Hope this plays out.

GBPJPY WEEKLY SWING TRADE! (1000 PIPS?)Hi fellow traders.
Considering that GJ has tanked significantly from its weekly highs a few months ago, all in the region about 140.000(+), I think now might be the perfect time for a reversal. RSI has also tapped the oversold region from last month, it might be time to see it go up.
I believe we could possibly see a long trade that could play out within the next few weeks in order to approach the outer resistance trend line drawn in black. I would aim to enter slightly lower than the current market price, around the region of 133.000 - 133.500 or lower. A perfect entry with a tight stop loss could prove to provide invaluable profits. A perfect break of the purple resistance drawn could help in providing a long bias for the weeks ahead.

GBPJPY Quick Push UpHi fellow traders.
Considering GBPJPY has just tapped the trend line from below acting as support, I plan to swing this trade to the upside where the upper resistance trend line lies. Aim to enter slightly lower than the current price, setting a buy order around 133.350. Could possible retrace lower and then move to the upside, so be ready to buy in at a lower possible price. Keeping a stop loss on this trade around the red support trend line.
Hope this plays out well. Good luck!

GBPJPY - MAKE OR BREAK LEVEL?Hi fellow traders,
Taking a look at GBPJPY, we are currently in a scenario where we could look to ideally target LONG trades. Though this may be on a monthly time frame, we can see we are approaching and now touching a critical support trend line. It appears that we are in a make or break scenario now, with the high likelihood of a fake out occurring.
I would think that this pair should bounce from around 129.000, looking to accelerate as we have been in a solid bearish monthly phase for nearly half a year, now touching PA from around 2016-2017. There is no real significant fundamental news coming out, so this trade is mainly PA & TA.
If we do not hold this support level, we have room to swing back lower towards 127.100, a level found from the weekly time frame but I do not consider much of a possibility.
Personally, I would consider longs from around 128.000 - 129.000 (enter around 128.500 if price reaches this level) towards the 130.000 as a take profit level as a short term swing trade. There is lot of room for manipulation with this pair.
The monthly level is key and I would be cautious with this trade, entering with extremely tight stop losses.
