The GBP/JPY cross quickly recovered around 50 pips from the early European session lows, albeit lacked any follow-through and was last seen trading with modest gains, around the 157.25-30 region.
Following an early uptick to the 157.65 region, the GBP/JPY cross witnessed some selling in reaction to dismal UK Retail Sales figures that added to signs of weakness in the economic recovery. Against the backdrop of this week's softer UK consumer inflation figures, the data further dashed hopes for an imminent rate hike by the Bank of England in November. This, in turn, was seen as a key factor that acted as a headwind for the British pound.
Investors, however, seem convinced that the BoE will eventually hike interest rates from record lows before the end of this year. This, along with stronger-than-expected UK PMI prints for October, assisted the GBP/JPY cross to attract some buying near the 156.85-80 region, just ahead of weekly lows. The Services PMI rose to a four-month high, while the gauge for the manufacturing sector unexpectedly edged higher during the reported month.
Meanwhile, reports that China Evergrande made funds available for a bond coupon to a trustee account helped ease concerns about a credit crunch in China's real estate sector. This was evident from stability in the equity markets, which undermined demand for the safe-haven Japanese yen and provided an additional lift to the GBP/JPY cross. That said, the uptick lacked any strong follow-through and warrants some caution for aggressive bullish traders.

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
