GBPJPY - Correction Likely as New Week Begins

257
The GBP/JPY chart shows a strong recovery from April lows near 185.00, but the pair now appears to be facing significant resistance at the highlighted box level around 193.50. After multiple attempts to break decisively above this zone in recent sessions, the price action is forming what looks like a short-term double top pattern, with the downward arrow indicating potential bearish momentum. This technical setup, combined with overbought conditions after the impressive rally from late April, suggests we may see some profit-taking and a corrective pullback in the beginning of the week. Traders should watch for a potential retracement toward the support level around 191.00-190.50 before the pair potentially attempts another run at the resistance zone.
