GBPUSD reaches resistance zone: Watching for potential reversalOANDA:GBPJPY has reached a pretty significant resistance level, that has been an obvious turning point in the past, with several strong reversals from the area. So naturally, I’m watching to see how price reacts here again.
If we get confirmation of rejection (what I usually watch for: like a bearish engulfing candle, long upper wicks or signs of increased selling pressure), I’ll be looking for short setups from there.
🟥 My sell idea is based on the expectation that this resistance will hold. I would be targeting a move down toward the 192.000 level, which I feel is a realistic and clean target, especially if price respects this structure again.
But if price breaks above and starts holding strong above the zone, then I’ll back off the bearish bias and reassess, and I’d consider the bearish idea invalidated, with potential for further upside 🚀
Just sharing how I see the chart right now, not financial advice 💕✨

GBPJPY - Monday's Action Could Spark Upside MoveThe GBP/JPY pair is currently positioned at a critical juncture around the 193.902 level, sitting near important support zones that have been highlighted on the chart. The currency pair has shown considerable volatility over the past month, with price action oscillating between well-defined support and resistance levels, creating a clear range-bound structure. As we approach Monday's trading session, the focus will be on whether the current support level can withstand any potential selling pressure. If this support zone holds firm and buyers step in to defend these levels, we could see a significant move to the upside, potentially targeting the upper resistance zone around the 196+ area that has previously capped rallies. The technical setup suggests that a successful defense of support could trigger renewed bullish momentum, making Monday's price action crucial for determining the pair's short-term directional bias and whether it can break out of its recent consolidation pattern.

GBPJPY Long 02/06Price retraced into the 88 fib zone and took buyers liquidity, early in the week for sustained selling and there is still much more significant news to come. The previous week closed bullish albeit with a wick. Anticipating price to fill some of the wick on the weekly. Targets at 195.000.
IS IT TIME TO SELL?
"As you can see, we are in a downward trend between two blue lines. Currently, we are at the top of this trend. It seems to be the right time to sell, as the static pink area intersects with the blue trend line. Therefore, it’s time to short. We can expect to reach the first take profit (TP) when we touch the minor uptrend indicated by the purple line."
GBPJPY preps for the breakoutThe interesting storyline may be developing around Japanese Yen and its cross-pairs (especially against European currencies). GBPJPY, for example, is concentrating inside of a massive trading range, as volatility for this pair has dropped to a one-year low.
Yields of 30-year bonds for Japan has been peaking to a historical high, but now they start to rebound. The net position of large speculators for Japanese Yen futures on COT-reports seem to point to the overleveraged situation, which might result to quick unloading of longs and Yen sliding down quickly, which may result in a shakeout of a volatility and rapid breakouts for GBPJPY and similar pairs.
Don't forget - this is just the idea, always do your own research and never forget to manage your risk!
#GBPJPY: Buyers and Sellers Both Has Equal Chances! Hey there! So, GBPJPY is at a pivotal moment, and we might see a mix of buying and selling activity in the market. Since the bulls aren’t exactly sure what to do next, here’s what we think:
- The GBPJPY pair is having a tough time breaking through the 194 region. The Japanese yen (JPY) is holding steady, making it hard to predict what will happen next. This has made trading JPY pairs a real challenge.
- Looking back at how prices have behaved in similar situations can give us some clues about what might happen in the future. But it’s important to do thorough research before we start trading. Just because something happened in the past doesn’t mean it will happen again.
- The Japanese yen (JPY) also tends to go down when the US dollar (USD) goes up. Since we’re bullish on the DXY index in the coming days, we think the JPY will probably take a hit, and it could go down a lot. It’s also worth keeping an eye on the GBP, which has been one of the most popular currencies since the market opened earlier today.
- In the meantime, we suggest setting two take-profit targets: one at 197 and another at 199. These levels are likely to see a lot of selling activity.
Now, let’s talk about what sellers should do:
- The price is currently in favour of sellers since it dropped from 195.50 to 193.50. And since the last two daily candles closed with strong bearish volume, it looks like the price is going to keep going down.
- If the price breaks below 190.50, that would be a great opportunity for sellers to make some money.
Good luck and trade safely!

P.S
Please, note that an oversold/overbought condition can last for a long time, and therefore being oversold/overbought doesn't mean a price rally will come soon, or at all.

GBPJPY At the Top? Massive Liquidity Grab📈 1. Price Action & Key Technical Levels (Daily Chart)
Price reached a major supply zone between 196.0 and 197.0, showing clear rejection (weekly pin bar and a lower high structure relative to the previous peak).
The long-term descending trendline acted as resistance again.
A confirmed rising wedge pattern broke to the downside, with first target around 191.4, and extended target near 187.4 (key demand zone with historical confluence).
Weekly RSI shows a bearish divergence vs price highs – an additional signal of bullish exhaustion.
📊 2. COT Data (as of June 3, 2025)
GBP (British Pound)
Net long positions increased by +30,371 contracts (Commercial + Non-Commercial).
Non-Commercials: 103,672 long vs 68,457 short → net long +35,215 but the increase is relatively modest.
Commercials are increasing both long and short positions, but the net delta supports medium-term GBP resilience.
JPY (Japanese Yen)
Net short worsened by -13,566 contracts.
Non-Commercials are cutting longs and adding shorts → aggressive yen selling.
Commercials remain heavily short (275,659 vs 100,151 long).
➡️ COT Conclusion: GBP remains structurally strong, but the JPY is now extremely oversold, increasing the likelihood of a technical correction in favor of JPY (GBPJPY pullback).
📉 3. Retail Sentiment
72% of retail traders are short GBPJPY, with an average entry at 191.2.
Current price is above 195.8 → a liquidity sweep above retail shorts may have already occurred.
The order book shows a heavy sell cluster between 195.0–195.9 → potential zone of manipulation/liquidation.
➡️ Contrarian view: After sweeping liquidity above retail highs, we may now see downside pressure to clean out breakout longs.
📅 4. Seasonality
June tends to be neutral to bearish:
5-year average: +0.45% (weak gain)
10- and 15-year averages: -1.24% and -1.30%
Historically, the first 10 days of June often mark a local top, followed by a decline – consistent with the current price structure.
🧠 5. Macro-Technical Confluence
The broader setup points to a distribution phase between 195.5–196.5, with high probability of a technical pullback toward 193.5–191.4 in the short-to-medium term.
The yen's oversold conditions may ease temporarily, supporting a corrective GBPJPY retracement.
Break below 193.5 would confirm the move toward 191.4 and eventually 187.4 – an area of institutional interest.
🔍 Trade Setup Summary (Bias: Bearish)
Technical context: Short setup confirmed by structure break, divergence, and supply rejection.
Macro/sentiment context: Supports a corrective pullback on the pair.
Strategy: Look for intraday weakness below 195.0–194.5 → targeting 193.5, then 191.4.
Invalidation: Daily/weekly close above 197.0.
GBPJPY 1H Analysis – Bullish Breakout from Ending Diagonal + AO Pair: GBP/JPY
Timeframe: 1H
Structure: Wave 5 Ending Diagonal + Bullish Divergence on AO
Hi traders! Here’s an update on GBPJPY from the 1H chart.
After a strong bearish move, price formed a falling wedge (ending diagonal) pattern, indicating exhaustion in the downtrend. This pattern completed with a final Wave 5 that showed significant weakness — and here’s the key signal:
🔍 Bullish Divergence Spotted
While price made a new lower low (Wave 5), the Awesome Oscillator (AO) printed a higher low. This classic bullish divergence hints that bearish momentum is fading and a potential reversal is in play.
📈 Breakout Confirmation
Price has now broken above the wedge and the 1.0 Fibonacci level (~193.67), confirming the breakout and early bullish momentum. We’re currently seeing price pushing up with strong momentum candles.
🎯 Potential Targets Based on Fibonacci Extensions:
• 1.618 – 194.60 (first resistance / TP1)
• 2.618 – 195.35 (TP2)
• 4.236 – 196.45 (extended TP3 if trend continues)
🛑 Key Support:
• 193.00 zone – ideally price should stay above this level to maintain bullish bias.
🧠 Summary:
• Falling wedge (ending diagonal) completed as Wave 5
• AO bullish divergence signals weakening sell pressure
• Breakout confirmed above 193.70
• Watching for continuation toward 194.60 and 195.30+
📌 I’ll be watching for a potential pullback above 193.70 for a high-probability reentry opportunity. Always manage your risk and trade what you see.

GBPJPY
Buying GBP/JPY now at 193.157 provides a well-reasoned entry with multiple technical and fundamental factors in support. The upward targets (193.5, 194.0, 194.5) are realistic, and the stop loss at 192.000 is well-placed to manage risk. This setup offers a clear, high-probability opportunity in the forex market.
Excellent Risk-to-Reward Ratio
With entry at 193.157, stop loss at 192.000, and a third target at 194.500, the potential reward significantly outweighs the risk.
Price Action Suggests Continued Upside
The pair is trading above key moving averages (e.g., 50 and 200 SMA), showing sustained buyer interest and momentum.
Volume Supports the Move
Recent volume spikes during upward moves suggest strong institutional buying, a bullish confirmation.
No Major Resistance Until 194.50
Technical analysis shows limited resistance zones between the current level and 194.500, leaving room for upward continuation.
