The GBP/JPY pair continues to be one that I believe a lot of traders are sleeping in. The thing I like about this market is that the GBP has been waking up for some time now – and I think that we are getting close to a very long-term move higher. At the same time, the Yen will sell off due to Bank of Japan interest rates.

Risk 0.66%

Can be taken any time.

Today’s GBP/JPY analysis:

The British Pound has been doing well lately, and I think this will continue. At the same time, we have seen a significant pullback in the XXX/JPY pairs, and now I believe that we are able to continue to build momentum higher because of this. The trend line I have on this chart shows the overall support going forward.

Due to a light economic calendar, I don’t see any potential conflict with this pair in the realm of news.
