GBP/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook

The GBP/JPY technical picture shows that the uptrend remains in place, but the pair could test lower prices after it cleared the 20-day SMA at 202.43. A further extension lower looms if the cross clear September’s 18 high at 201.27, opening the door for further downside.

The next key support levels are the 50-day SMA at 200.63, followed by the 100-day SMA at 199.29 and October’s low at 197.49.

Conversely, if GBP/JPY reclaims 202.00, buyers could drive price action towards the 203.00 milestone, followed by the current week’s high at 204.24.
