GJ - BUY

88
Bias: Bullish

Market Structure Analysis:
The GBP/JPY pair shows a strong bullish trend across all timeframes.

On the 4-hour chart, price has established a series of higher lows and higher highs since late February. The recent price action shows a decisive breakout above the 194.00 resistance level, which is now likely to act as support.

The 1-hour and 15-minute charts confirm this bullish momentum with price holding above key moving averages.

Setup:
A pullback entry after the recent breakout offers a favorable risk-reward ratio. The 194.00 level should now act as support following the breakout, creating an opportunity for a continuation trade.

Entry: 194.10 (Limit Order)
Place a limit order slightly above the previous resistance (now support) at 194.00, anticipating a minor pullback before continuation.

Stop Loss: 193.75
Placing the stop below the recent support zone keeps risk contained within 35 pips.

Take Profit (TP1): 194.80
First target at the recent high, offering a solid risk-reward ratio of approximately 2:1.

Extended Take Profit (TP2): 195.50
Secondary target at the psychological level of 195.50, which would represent a continuation of the bullish trend.

Order Type: Limit Order
Wait for a pullback to 194.10 for entry rather than chasing the current price.

Alternative Scenario:
If price drops below 193.50 without triggering the entry, wait for a potential retest of the 193.00 support level before considering a new long position. The bullish bias would be invalidated if price breaks below the 192.00 level, which represents a key structural support on the 4-hour chart.
