The GBP/JPY pair is developing an impulse wave C of the medium term downtrend from 129.32 (light green in the chart) comprising two subwaves (royal blue in the chart) and a potential corrective subwave B moving from 118.74. Within this wave we also have three subwaves (red in the chart) and impulse subwave C developing from 119.69 including 5 subwaves (yellow in the chart) and subwave 5 still moving from 121.91.

Presently the resistances are Fibonacci retracements of 126.39-118.74 and expansions of 118.74-120.77-119.69, 119.69-121.27-120.56, 120.56-122.89-121.91.

Resistances:

- 122.97 = expanded objective point (XOP)
- 123.12 = XOP
- 123.35 = contracted objective point (COP)
- 123.47 = .618 retracement
- 124.24 = objective point (OP)

If the price reverses to the downside, the immediate supports will be Fibonacci retracements of the wave up from 118.74 - this wave has not developed yet, so supports are not available.

Overbought/Oversold

The bigger wave is now moving up, so it is preferable to try long positions when the Detrended Oscillator goes below the zero level (10-15 pips below the current prices) or into the oversold area (35-50 pips below the current prices). Consider the opportunities to go long at or near the indicated resistances.
