03.10.201707:53 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for October 03, 2017

All our targets which we predicted in Yesterday's analysis have been hit. GBP/JPY is expected to continue its downside movement. The pair has clearly reversed down and is likely to test its support at 149.25. The risk of a slide below 149.25 remains high, as the 50-period moving average plays a key resistance, and should continue to push the prices lower. Furthermore, the relative strength index lacks upward momentum.

To sum up, as long as 152.20 is not surpassed, look for a new pullback to 149.25 and 148.75 in extension.

Alternatively, if the price moves in the direction opposite to the forecast, a long position is recommended above 150.20 with the target at 150.70.

Strategy: SELL, Stop Loss: 150.20, Take Profit: 149.25
