Overview:
GBP/JPY is expected to trade in lower range. It is weighed by the weak EUR sentiment and Japan exporter sales. But GBP/JPY losses are tempered by the demand from Japan importers and positive investor risk appetite. The daily chart is mixed as MACD is bullish, but stochastics is bearish at overbought zone.
Trading recommendations:
The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a higher range as far as it remains above its pivot point. As long as the price is keeping above its pivot point, a long position is recommended with the first target at 172.70 and the second target at 172.90. In an alternative scenario, if the price moves below its pivot points, short positions are recommended with the first target at 171.50. A break of this target would push the pair further downwards and one may expect the second target at 171.15. The pivot point is at 171.90.
