GBP/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook
The GBP/JPY pair began the week on a lower note, but as of writing, it is forming a ‘bullish engulfing’ candle chart pattern, which, if confirmed, could open the door for further gains.
Momentum shows that buyers remain in charge with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) bottoming around its 50-neutral line, aiming higher, an indication that bulls are stepping in.
A break above 211.00 clears the path for further gains, with the next key resistance level seen at the February 25 swing high of 212.12. If surpassed, GBP/JPY's next stop would be the February 10 high at 213.82, ahead of 214.00.
On the downside, if GBP/JPY extends its losses below 210.00, bring the day’s low of 209.35 into focus. On further weakness, the next demand zone would be 209.00 ahead of the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 207.91
