GBP/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 130.52; (P) 131.27; (R1) 131.84; More

GBP/JPY's recovery from 128.77 is still in progress and might extend further to 4 hours 55 EMA (now at 132.07. However, upside is still expected to be limited by 132.76 support turned resistance and bring resumption of fall from 137.75. Below 130.58 minor support will flip intraday bias back to the downside for 128.77 first. Break there will target a test on medium term low of 126.73 next. However, note that sustained break of 132.76 will dampen this bearish view and turn focus to 137.75 resistance instead.

Candlesticks and Ichimoku Intraday Trade Ideas

Trade Idea: USD/CHF – Sell at 1.0345

Despite yesterday's resumption of decline to 1.0222, as suggested in our previous update, instant sharp fall below there should be limited and the recovery from there together with the flat ground Kijun-Sen suggest consolidation would take place and retracement to the Ichimoku cloud bottom now at 1.0292) and possibly 1.0319 resistance cannot be ruled out.

Trade Idea: EUR/USD – Hold long entered at 1.2695

Despite yesterday's rise to 1.2765, the subsequent retreat from there suggests caution on our long position entered at 1.2695 and minor support at 1.2666 needs to hold to retain bullishness for the rise from 1.2588 temporary low to bring a stronger retracement of recent decline. Above said resistance would extend gain to 1.2795-00 (61.8% Fibonacci retracement of 1.2923 to 1.2588) but reckon resistance at 1.2833 would hold from here.
