Pound’s reversal against the Yen extended to fresh one-week lows at 201.34, hammered by a downbeat UK employment report and the risk-averse sentiment stemming from a new chapter of the Sino-US trade feud.

Data from the UK released earlier on Tuesday revealed an unexpected increase in the jobless rate to 4.8% for the three months up to August, up from 4.7% in July, while net employment increased by 91K, down from 232K in July.

Technical analysis: Failure at 203.50 keeps the bears in control

GBP/JPY Chart

From a technical perspective, the impulsive reversal from 203.50 keeps the downside trend from the early October highs at 205.33 in play. The 4-hour RSI remains below the 40.00 level, highlighting the bearish momentum.

Price action remains close to the weekly lows at 201.35. Further down, the 200.40 level (September 26 highs and October 6 low) emerges as the next target ahead of Monday’s gap opening level, at 198.85.

On the upside, previous support, at the 202.00 level (October 10 low), has now turned into resistance. Above here, the daily high at the 203.50 area is closing the path towards the October 8 high, at 206.35.
