The British Pound attempted to appreciate against a weaker Yen in the early morning trade, but sellers appeared at the 200.30 area, sending the pair 0.15% lower to the mid-range of the 199.00s.
The Japanese Yen depreciated across the board in early trading as investors reacted to the announcement of Prime Minister Ishiba’s resignation and the chances that former foreign minister Toshimutsu Motegi would replace him. Mortegi’s support for a loose monetary policy would put BoJ’s monetary tightening plans into question.
Technical analysis: The immediate bullish trend remains intact
The broad picture shows the pair trading sideways below the mentioned 200.30 resistance level, but the immediate trend remains intact, with the pair printing higher highs and higher lows from last week.
The 200.30 level, however, capped upside attempts on August 13 and 18, as well as on September 2 and is likely to be a tough hurdle. Above here, the next target would be the 127.2% Fibonacci retracement of the mid-August reversal, at 200.95.
To the downside, the pair has a gap at the 199.20 level, and gapps tend to close. A trendline support from the September 2 low lies at 199.00. Below here, the September 5 low, at 198.70, and the September 3 low at 198.35 are likely to attract bearish pressure.
