As could be seen on the daily chart that the pair did not show any strong move in the previous sessions but we still have technical factors that support a bullish scenario that the pair may continue going up to reach the level of 1.2000 during the week. This is conditioned by the continuation of trading above the level of 1.1660.

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:
▪ 1.2100
▪ 1.2000

The pair managed to break the level of 0.7740 (strong resistance level) so we believe that as long as the pair is traded above it, it is highly recommended to go long targeting the level of 0.7810.

▪ 0.8100
▪ 0.8060
▪ 0.7810

  • GBPJPY

As could be seen on the chart above that the pair is traded within an ascending channel but there is nowhere to enter the market now. So, we will be waiting for the pair to reach either the upside that is where we can go short or the down side where we can go long. Generally speaking, having the pair traded above the 50 EMA opens the door for further upward movement that the pair can reach the level of 153 during the week.

Resistance levels: Support levels: Recommended:
▪ 152.90
▪ 152
▪ 148
▪ 147
We remain bullish as long as the pair is traded above the 50 ema.
