GBP/JPY Price Analysis: 100-DMA challenges recovery from two-month low

  • GBP/JPY picks up bids to refresh intraday high, snaps two-day downtrend.
  • Bearish MACD signals, downbeat RSI keep sellers hopeful to retest 200-DMA.
  • One-month-old falling trend line adds to the downside filters.

GBP/JPY prints the highest daily gains in a fortnight as buyers flirt with 157.80 during Friday’s Asian session.

The cross-currency pair’s latest rebound from the lowest levels since March, marked the previous day, lacks support from the RSI, as well as the MACD.

As a result, the 100-DMA level, surrounding 158.00, probes the GBP/JPY buyers, making it difficult to reverse the monthly bearish trend.

Even if the quote rises past 158.00, a downward sloping trend line from April 20, near 160.80 by the press time, appears a tough nut to crack for the bulls, which in turn will trigger the run-up targeting the 164.00 level.

Meanwhile, pullback moves may retest the 157.00 threshold but will be challenged by the 200-DMA, around 155.20 at the latest.

Following that, the yearly lows surrounding 151.00 and the 150.00 psychological magnet will lure the GBP/JPY bears.
