GBP/JPY only staged a minor dip to 142.12 before starting a new rally above 142.75 towards important resistance at 143.38. Once this resistance breaks, there is no more doubt that wave iv completed prematurely at 140.80 and wave v higher towards at least 149.11 is in progress.

Support is now seen at 142.75 and again at 142.42. Ideally the later will protect the downside or a new dip to 142.12 should be expected before a new attack on important resistance at 143.38 is launched.
