GBP/JPY retreats over 0.55% on Wednesday as the Japanese Yen strengthened in the aftermath of last week’s intervention in the FX markets by Japanese authorities. At the time of writing, the cross-pair trades at 212.60 after reaching a daily peak of 214.23.
GBP/JPY Price Forecast: Technical Outlook
The GBP/JPY is poised to consolidate after clearing key support levels like the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 211.99, followed by the 50-day SMA at 212.85.
Momentum favours further upside, as depicted in the daily chart, but the Relative Strength Index (RSI) hints that further downside is seen.
If GBP/JPY drops below the 100-day SMA of 212.04, the cross would resume its downtrend sharply, with the next support seen at 210.46, the April 30 swing low. A breach of the latter will expose the March 31 swing low of 209.63, followed by the March 5 low of 209.18.
Conversely, the first resistance for GBP/JPY is the 50-day SMA at 212.91. A decisive break will expose the 213.00 figure, followed by the 214.00, with buyers eyeing the 20-day SMA at 214.63.
