Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for February 8, 2018

All our targets which we predicted in the previous analysis have been hit. GBP/JPY is expected to trade with a bullish outlook. The pair is trading above its rising 20-period and 50-period moving averages, which play support roles and maintains the bullish bias. The relative strength index is supported by an ascending trend line.

Therefore, as long as 151.85 is not broken, look for a further advance with targets at 154.60 and 155.40 in extension.

Alternatively, if the price moves in the direction opposite to the forecast, a short position is recommended to be below 151.85 with the target at 151.25.

Strategy: BUY, Stop loss at 151.85, Take profit at 154.60
