GBPJPY trade ideas

GBPJPY Potential longsFX:GBPJPY After a week of bearish movement, the price has finally broke and closed above last week's high. This pair may give opportunity for some short-term bullish momentum towards the upside. On yesterday's PMI news, price broke above the fib zone and came back retesting, before continuing its second expansion upwards. Price has previously broke above the 4H swap zone but quickly came back to the 1H support zone at 188.24 and retested twice without breaching the support zone. This gives us extra confluence for entering longs. For swing trading, we can take buys from the second half of the swap zone to the end of the 0.79 fib zone. The reason why we could also enter buys off the 4H swap zone is because price has already retested once on the fib zone, and the swap zone remains as a very strong support. As for intraday and scalping, I’d prefer to wait for short timeframe confirmations and enter with a smaller stop loss for more precise entry. We can target the buys towards 4H resistance zone at 191.180. Trade safely 😃

GBPJPY Trapped In A Triangle RangeGBPJPY made a very strong reversal in the second half of 2024, following a sharp drop of more than 10%, with an aggressive bearish impulse and also broke the lower trendline of the impulsive channel back in August. Since then, the first recovery unfolded in three waves, suggesting this move could be part of a complex correction—currently still unfolding as a wave B pause. Ideally, this structure is forming a triangle, especially as the drop back to the recent April lows also looks corrective. So, I believe the triangle scenario is the most likely scenario here, and price could now be heading toward the upper side of the range if risk-on sentiment continues. Still, upside may be limited, as this range could stay in play until all A-B-C-D-E legs are completed. If correct, wave C for a deeper move lower is still missing and could develop later this year.

GBP/JPY: Bearish Bias Pushes Price Toward Key Support LevelOver the last three trading weeks, the GBP/JPY pair has depreciated by more than 3%, establishing a firm bearish bias in favor of the yen in the short term. This perspective has remained intact primarily due to growing expectations of a more dovish monetary policy from the Bank of England, which left its interest rate unchanged at 4.5% in its latest meeting. Markets now anticipate a 25 basis point rate cut at the upcoming May 8 meeting, potentially bringing the rate down to 4.25%. This expectation is supported by the fact that inflation in the UK currently stands at 2.6%, close to the central bank’s 2% target, further justifying the possibility of additional rate cuts in the short term. Lower interest rates in the UK reduce the appeal of GBP-denominated assets, which in turn can drive selling pressure on the pound. Safe-Haven Demand for the Yen It is also important to note that the Japanese yen is historically seen as a safe-haven currency, due to its relative stability compared to other major currencies. As the global tariff conflict intensifies and economic growth prospects weaken, demand for the yen is likely to increase further in the short term. This dynamic could lead to continued downside pressure on GBP/JPY. Broad Sideways Channel Still Intact Since August 2024, GBP/JPY has traded within a well-defined sideways channel, with resistance around 198.676 and support near 186.932. Recent bearish moves have not been strong enough to break below this key support, suggesting that this lateral formation remains the dominant structure for upcoming sessions. Indicators Show Growing Neutrality: MACD: The MACD histogram is currently sitting around the neutral 0 line, indicating that the average momentum of recent moving averages remains in balance, with no dominant force in either direction. RSI: A similar situation is seen in the RSI, which is hovering near the neutral 50 zone. This reflects a constant balance between buying and selling pressure. Together, these indicators suggest persistent neutrality, likely due to the strong support zone that the price is currently testing. Key Levels to Watch: 190.14: A near-term resistance level, aligned with the Ichimoku cloud barrier. A bounce toward this level could reactivate short-term bullish momentum. 192.493: A significant resistance, located at the convergence of the 100- and 200-period moving averages. A return to this area could reinforce the validity of the sideways channel still visible on the chart. 186.93: Key support level, located at the lower boundary of the broad sideways range. Bearish moves that manage to break below this level could mark the beginning of a much more significant downtrend in the upcoming sessions. Written by Julian Pineda, CFA – Market Analyst

Buy-the-Dip Setup on GBP/JPY with Target at Previous HighGBP/JPY is currently trading at 188.85, within a corrective move but still preserving its bullish structure, as long as price remains above the 178.00 support floor. The zone between 184.57 and 178.03 marks a strong weekly demand area, which aligns with previous consolidation and demand before impulsive moves. The price is below the Ichimoku cloud (Span A: 190.90, Span B: 192.93), indicating short-term bearish momentum. However, this could simply be a retracement within a larger bullish trend, especially since the market has not yet broken structure to the downside. Trend Strength Index (TSI) readings show a clear loss of momentum: TSI(10): -0.62 TSI(20): -0.56 These values are near oversold levels, increasing the likelihood of a bullish reversal, especially within a key demand zone. Liquidity above recent local highs may serve as fuel for a breakout if bulls reclaim key levels near the cloud base. If price confirms support at 184–178, the bullish setup targets a return to the previous swing high at 208.11. This would offer a highly favorable risk-to-reward ratio, with the invalidation clearly placed below 178.00. Trade Setup Summary: Long Entry Zone: 184.57 – 178.03 Stop Loss: Below 178.00 Target: 208.11 (previous high) Structure Bias: Bullish above 178.00 The British pound remains relatively strong as the Bank of England signals caution before cutting rates, contrasting with Japan's ultra-loose monetary policy. While the yen remains fundamentally weak, there is always potential for temporary JPY strength due to risk-off flows. However, unless the BoJ surprises with policy shifts, GBP/JPY continues to favor upside on both structural and macroeconomic grounds.
