Primary Focus Pair: Overview
GBPJPY
GBP is highlighted as a strong currency on both of our live forex strength vs weakness tables.
Opposite to GBP is JPY which remains weak despite the potential for a change in the risk sentiment this week.
US Debt Ceiling negotiations could have caused a shift in risk tone this week, but the market is pricing in a solution to the negotiations keeping JPY weak.
GBPJPY has been consolidating above key resistance of 171.50.
A breakout higher could influence a move up to key resistance of 174.50.
If we are looking to get long on this forex pair we have two options.
The first option would be to wait for price to trade through the highs at 172.75 before looking for a pullback entry.
A second option could be to wait for price to come back to the lows of the range at 171.50 for a range low entry.
Either option could work in this type of situation, however if momentum is with this market, we would expect a break and retest entry will be more likely.
