FxWirePro- GBPJPY Daily Outlook

GBPJPY pared some of its gains after weak UK GPD data.  The UK economy contracted 0.20% in Q3, above the estimate of -0.50%. It has expanded 2.4% on an annualized basis in Q3 vs the 2.1% expected. The Pound sterling surged above 1.1700 levels on board-based US dollar weakness. Any violation above 1.1750 confirms further bullishness; a jump to 1.2000 is possible. Technically in the 4-hour chart, GBPJPY holds below  21-EMA, 55- EMA, and long-term 200 EMA (166.36).  Any convincing close below 164.35 will drag the pair to the next level 163/162/159.70. GBPJPY hits an intraday low of 166.09 and is currently trading around 165.68.

 

 The near-term resistance is around 166.30, a breach above targets 167.32/ 168/169.10/170/172.

 

Indicators (4-hour chart)
