GBP/JPY Technical Strategy: Short at 172.26
Support: 169.86 (38.2% Fib ret.), 168.71 (50% Fib ret.)
Resistance:171.39 (falling trend line), 172.82 (triple top)
The British Pound is attempting to renew its downward push against the Japanese Yen after finding interim support above the 170.00 figure. Sellers are testing support at 169.86, the 38.2%Fibonacci retracement, with a break below that on a daily closing basis targeting the 50% Fib at 168.71. Falling trend line resistance is at 171.29. A move above that aims for triple top resistance at 172.82.
We entered short GBPJPY at 172.26 and took profit on half of the positionat 171.27. We continue to hold the remainder of the trade, looking to capture any further downside momentum. The stop-loss is now set at the breakeven level.
