GBPJPY Summary [2015.11.25]

[Caveat Emptor]
GBPJPY

The pair started to climb up after the bounce on yesterday's daily low of 184.31. The bears tried pushing it back down early in the day but failed to capitalize and the pair started to climb. As we hoped the pair broke the DP of 185.20/185.00 area and thus we are able to enter the trade and targeted the next DP as our initial target 185.80/185.60 (Coincidentally this DP is also around our first Daily resistance yesterday.) For the pair to continue to climb upward we'd like this pair to break the 185.80/185.60 DP as the range was rejected in the 1 hour chart (almost two times now as of writing.) We'd monitor the pair further and volatility might get affected since today is Turkey Day in the U.S.. Happy Thanksgiving day to those in the U.S.


Current Areas To Consider (Decision Points [DP]):
187.30/187.40
186.60/186.80
186.20/186.30
185.60/185.80
185.00/185.20
184.60/184.75
184.10/184.30
183.50/183.70

For Bulls :
The pair got rejected at the 185.80/185.60 DP (1 hour chart) before lunch in the US market and seems another rejection nearing the close of the US market. The bulls needs to hone their horns and break the current DP for us to see a re-climb  of the pair.

For Bears :
Further rejection of the 185.80/185.60 DP would give bears the opportunity to short this pair again. A bounce from this area and we'll look at the next DP 185.20/185.00 which initially stopped the initial rejection at the 185.80/185.60 DP. A break of these two DPs then we'll look for further selling opportunities and TPs .

The pair continued down yesterday and continued to 184.31. It bounced back from that level and closed at the 184.73 mark. Currently, we are looking forward to the news on both the Japanese Yen and British Pound for possible reversal of the pair.

184.60/184.75
184.10/184.30
183.50/183.70

For Bulls :
The pair closed around the 184.80/184.70 area. We are looking forward for it to make a decisive close above the 185.20/185.00 area before we considering going long. So far it is best to sit in the sidelines at the moment and wait for the news and market response for further confirmation.

For Bears :
The pair continued below the 61.8 fib and almost but bounced around the 184.30 area. The pair closed around yesterday's 184.70/184.50 (DP). We'd like to see it break that area down for further short continuation to then target our next DP (184.30/184.10) a break of this area and the pair might re-test the 183.70/183.50 DP again (10/27 - 10/28 lows). The pair seems to be trying to climb up but depending on the news releases today from both the Japanese Yen and the British Pound, together with the issue in the Middle East regarding Turkey and Russia the pair might get battered again. But so far we'll watch and see where the market will go.

The pair continued down and is currently just a bit below the 61.8 Fib in the 4 hour chart of the low (2015.11.06 12:00 [GMT+2]) and high of (2015.11.19 00:00 [GMT+2]).  Seems, the pair is currently consolidating at the 185.80/185.60 area (current DP. If the pair breaks the current DP, will look at a small short to target the next DP or at most the 100 fib. Looks like the bears are currently a bit in control for the moment until the next major news would push it down further or give the bulls a chance to take over.

For Bulls :The Pair is currently consolidating just below the 61.8 fib of the 4 hour chart of the low (2015.11.06 12:00 [GMT+2]) and high of (2015.11.19 00:00 [GMT+2]).  For the bulls to start taking over we'd like to see it break the 186.30/186.20 area and set an initial target of the 186.60/186.80 area (DP) and break that area before it can climb up further.

For Bears :
The pair closed slightly below the 61.8 fib and is currently consolidating there. We are looking for a break below the 185.80/185.60 area to target the 185.20/185.00 area. A further break of this and we'd look at the next DP. (see Current Areas to Consider for DPs)

GBPJPY Summary With Computed Weekly Pivot [2015.11.20]

[Caveat Emptor]
GBPJPY
The pair continued on to retrace down with bears taking over due to the pound news on Public Sector Borrowing. Actual is 7.5B which is a lot more than the forecast 5.5B. Since, there is no major news between the pound and the yen until Wednesday, will be observing the pair if it breaks the  186.30/186.10  area for shorts or climb up above 186.60 area for long.

186.10/186.30
185.60/185.80
185.00/185.20




For Bulls :
If the pair recovers and goes up, we'll see if the pair can break the 186.80/186.60 area (majority of the trades happened here last Friday) and climb up. If it breaks this area, we could target another previous DP (decision point) 187.40/187.30 area. Beyond that range we'll look next at 187.60/187.80.  

For Bears :
Currently the pair at the 50 fib in the 4 hour chart of the low (2015.11.06 12:00 [GMT+2]) and high of (2015.11.19 00:00 [GMT+2]). A further break of this area (186.30/186.10) would give us a signal to short the pair and target 61.8 fib (roughly the 185.80/185.60 area. A further break and we'll target 185.20/185.00 area.

GBPJPY Summary [2015.11.19]

[Caveat Emptor]

GBPJPY

The pair went as high as 188.79 today and retraced back down to the 187.70 area. This retracement can be due to bulls closing out for some profit and also due to the news released (GBP - Retail Sales m/m) which was at -0.6% instead of the forecasted -0.4%, a lot lower than the previous month release 1.7%. Currently, the pair has found some support and consolidated in the 187.80/187.60 area. My personal outlook for this is still bullish with my week's target to be at 189.10/189.00 area(hoping it reaches this area). A close near and above 189.00 area and we might see 192.00 and 195.00 (hopefully)  in the next few weeks.

Areas To Take Note of :

188.30/188.10
187.80/187.60
187.40/187.30
187.00/186.80

For Bulls:

A break of the  188.30/188.10 area, would help push to the target 189.10/189.00 area as less resistance was seen from yesterday's high.

For Bears:

Currently, the pair has consolidated at around 187.80/187.60 a break of this area and it might try to test the support (187.40/187.30) which rejected the price as of 11/18/2015. A break of this and we'll see it try for 187.00/186.80 area and we'll look for further downside target.
