3 Trades Ideas for GBPJPY
1. Bullish bias - If price rejects the previous resistance level @ 152.30 and past 153.30 (previous highs) then we would see a break of the downtrend structure and expect price to continue up
2. Bullish bias - If price continues down to the bottom of the ascending trend line and rejects then again we would see a break of structure (BOS) above 153.80 towards 155.30 (50% fib) or 156 (618% fib)
3. Bearish bias - If price breaks below 152.40 - 152.30 then we could see a continued downtrend especially if we see closures below. Then targets would be next support @ 151.35 then 149.95

Good Opportunity to be long on GBPJPY. GBPJPY / 1D
GBPJPY has been trading in a bullish structure in a higher time frame.
Recently, the price was pulling back heavily to test a few levels.
For the next few days, we will be looking for a long term buying opportunity
around our buying zone where we expect buyers to show up heavily
in the market.

GBPJPY CONSOLIDATIONGBPJPY currently in a consolidation (sideways channel), best advice is to sit this one out and let it play out. Direction of breakout can’t be predicted and is based more on fundamentals than TA. Japan has 2 news event coming up later today so let’s watch but their last few news event didn’t affect the market much either so don’t go crazy with position based off the news. Good luck!
SHORT trade for GJShort trade for GJ. Finally broke past support and made a move to the downside. I expect to see a little bit of price action between the minor resistance levels on the way to my profit target. I don't expect to see much overall resistance for the move to continue seeing as there are no major news announcements for either country at the moment. Price could very well head all the way down to the previous support level below my profit target. Here are my numbers for the trade. I am currently in this trade and will update with news on the trade.
Entry - 155.552
Stop Loss - 156.052
Profit Target - 154.560
Risk - 1%
R/R - 2
As always,
Stay safe and stick with your plan.
Still bearish on GBPJPYGBPJPY / 2H
GBPJPY is till following the bearish momentum as predicted the last week after
observing a classical Wycoff distribution. We will continue watching over this pair for
more potential sells around the zones 155.00 and 155.5 after price action confirmation.
Trade safe,

GJ Weekly AnalysisGJ is still trading within my channel from previous markup. I also see that Adx is showing bullish movement, so I will only be taking and holding for buys. I do also expect price to drop to 50% level before continuing up.
On a scalping level, if price breaks my descending wedge I want to take quick sells
