Review and Forecast for GBP / JPY

The ascending wave of the cross pair pound/yen came to its logical conclusion. In a larger wave model, this section took the place of correction. Price extremes over the past year have formed a distinct geometric figure "ascending flag", the top of which lies against the potential reversal zone on a large scale.

Moving near the scale of the analysis, the last incomplete wave design dominates dated September 21 last year. Today, the middle part of the wave (B) is formed in it.

There is a high probability of the completion of the upward movement today and the beginning of the downward price movement. During the reversal, a short-term puncture of the upper boundary of the resistance zone is not ruled out.

Boundaries of resistance zones:

- 154.30 / 60

Boundaries of support zones:

- 153.30 / 153.00

Boundaries of resistance zones:

- 90.90 / 91.00

Boundaries of support zones:

- 90.30 / 20

Explanations to the figures: For simplified wave analysis, a simple waveform is used that combines 3 parts (A; B; C). Of these waves, all kinds of correction are composed and most of the impulses. On each considered time frame the last and incomplete wave is analyzed.

The areas marked on the graphs are indicated by the calculation areas in which the probability of a change in the direction of motion is significantly increased. Arrows indicate the wave counting according to the technique used by the author. The solid background of the arrows indicates the structure formed, the dotted one indicates the expected wave motion.

Attention: The wave algorithm does not take into account the duration of the tool movements in time. The forecast is not a trading signal! To conduct a trade transaction, you need to confirm the signals of your trading systems.
