GBP/JPY Price Analysis: Bears attack 100-SMA support near 160.00

  • GBP/JPY holds lower ground near 100-SMA support, down for the second consecutive day.
  • Downbeat MACD signals, RSI (14) add strength to the bearish bias.
  • Five-week-old descending resistance line holds the key to buyer’s conviction.

GBP/JPY fades the late Tuesday’s corrective bounce off the 100-bar Simple Moving Average (SMA) as it prints mild losses near the 160.00 psychological magnet during early Wednesday. In doing so, the cross-currency pair keeps the previous week’s retreat from a one-month high.

Not only the failure to defend the bounce off 100-SMA but bearish MACD signals and downbeat RSI (14), not oversold, also keeps GBP/JPY bears hopeful.

However, a clear downside break of the stated SMA level surrounding 159.70 becomes necessary for the GBP/JPY bears.

Following that, the January 19 swing low near 157.60 could act as a buffer during the fall targeting the previous monthly low of 155.36. It should be noted that May 2022 low near 155.60 also challenges the short-term GBP/JPY bears.

Meanwhile, recovery moves may aim for the latest peak surrounding 161.45 before approaching a downward-sloping resistance line from late December 2022, close to 161.65 at the latest.

In a case where the quote rises past 161.65, the 50% Fibonacci retracement of GBP/JPY downbeat between late 2022 and early January 2023, around 162.30, could act as the last defense of the bears.

To sum up, GBP/JPY is likely to remain bearish even if the 100-SMA challenges the immediate downside.

Upozorenje o rizicima

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.
