The Pound Sterling advances against the Japanese Yen on Monday, up 0.59% amid fears for a possible intervention by Japanese authorities in the foreign exchange markets. At the time of writing, the GBP/JPY trades at 214.78, bouncing off daily lows of 213.41.
GBP/JPY Price Forecast: Technical Outlook
The cross-pair consolidates near the year highs, forming an ‘ascending triangle’, which could open the door for further upside. The GBP/JPY has reclaimed the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 214.06, which has exacerbated the rally towards the current spot price of 215.00.
Momentum, as measured by the Relative Strength Index (RSI), turned bullish exponentially, clearing the 50-neutral level and heading toward the 55.00 mark. The path of least resistance is tilted to the upside, if not for the potential intervention.
The first resistance for GBP/JPY would be 215.00. A breach of the latter will expose the 215.40-215.50 area ahead of 216.00. Above this area, the next resistance is the year-to-date (YTD) high at 216.60.
Downwards, the first support is the 50-day SMA at 214.06. If breached, the next support would be the 213.00 mark ahead of the 100-day SMA at 212.83.
