The GBP/JPY is expected to trade buoyant. It is supported by diminished investor risk aversion and demand of Japanese importers. It is also supported by sterling demand on soft EUR/GBP cross and sterling demand on buoyant GBP/JPY cross amid diminished risk aversion. But GBP/JPY upside is limited by weak EUR/USD undertone and Japanese importers sales.

The daily chart is mixed, as stochastics is bearish, a five-day moving average is below a 15-day moving average and is declining, but the MACD is still in a bullish mode.
