GBP/JPY is expected to trade in a higher range as the bias remains bullish. The pair is currently testing the support of its 50-period moving average, while the 20-period moving average is staying above the 50-period one. And the relative strength index is around its neutrality area at 50, showing a lack of momentum. The intraday bias remains positive.
As long as 138.85 is not broken down, a further bounce is preferred with 140.15 and 140.60 as targets.
The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a wider range as long as it remains above its pivot point. Therefore, long positions are recommended with the first target at 140.15 and the second one at 140.60. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 138.35 if the price moves below its pivot points. A break of this target may push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 137.80. The pivot point is at 138.85.
Resistance levels: 140.15, 140.60, and 141.35
Support levels: 138.35,137.80, and 137.30
