Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for May 16, 2017

GBPJPYM30.png

GBP/JPY is expected to extend its upside movement. The pair recorded a succession of higher tops and higher bottoms and is holding on the upside. The rising 50-period moving average is playing a support role and maintains the upside bias. The relative strength index is above its neutrality level at 50 and lacks downward momentum.

As long as 146.15 holds on the downside, look for a further advance towards 147.00 and even 147.35 in extension.

The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a wider range as long as it remains above its pivot point. Therefore, long positions are recommended with the first target at 147.00 and the second one at 147.35. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 145.70 if the price moves below its pivot points. A break of this target may push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 145.35. The pivot point is at 146.15.

Resistance levels: 147.00, 147.35, and 148.60

Support levels: 145.70,145.35, and 144.65
