Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for August 11, 2017

This image is no longer relevant

All our targets, which we predicted in yesterday's analysis, have been hit. The pair is still under pressure and recorded a succession of lower tops and lower bottoms since Aug 10, which confirms a negative view. The declining 20-period and 50-period moving averages maintain the downside bias. The relative strength index is below its neutrality level at 50 and lacks upward momentum. In addition, 142.25 is playing a key resistance role, which should limit the upside potential.

As long as this key level holds on the upside, look for a further drop towards 140.50 and even 139.95 in extension.

Alternatively, if the price moves in the opposite direction as predicted, a long position is recommended above 142.25 with the target at 142.80.

Strategy: SELL, Stop Loss: 142.25, Take Profit: 140.50.

Chart Explanation: the black line shows the pivot point. The price above the pivot point indicates the bullish position; and when it is below the pivot points, it indicates a short position. The red lines show the support levels and the green line indicates the resistance levels. These levels can be used to enter and exit trades.

Resistance levels: 142.80, 143.35, and 144.35

Support levels: 140.50, 139.95, and 140.65.
