Talking Points:
GBP/JPY Technical Strategy: Flat
Support: 177.70, 175.84, 174.34
Resistance: 180.69, 182.55, 183.69
The British Pound soared to the highest level in six weeks against the Japanese Yen after an unexpected expansion of BOJ stimulus. A daily close above the September 19 highat 180.69 exposes the 114.6% Fibonacci extension at 182.55. Alternatively, a reversal below the 76.4% Fib retracement at 177.70 opens the door for a test of the 61.8% level at 175.84.
Risk/reward considerations argue against entering long with prices in close proximity to resistance. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bearish reversal signal suggests taking up the short side is premature. We will remain flat for now, waiting for a more actionable opportunity to present itself.
