GBP/JPY Analysis

The GBP/JPY pair has been stabilizing of the last couple of sessions, and it is likely that we could see a short-term bounce. Because of this, the second trade is probably going to be the more likely of the 2 trades I have put here. However, it’s hard to deny that this pair is in a massive downtrend, so at this point in time I am not looking to buy the British pound against the Japanese yen, and they do believe that eventually we break down below the 125 handle as momentum continues to carry us.

GBP/JPY Analysis

There are no announcements that should move this market significantly today.
