GBP/JPY – Technical Analysis- H4 Chart

The chart shows that the price made a long bullish move before making a bearish breakout at the simple moving average 30’s support. It made a bullish correction and produced a bullish reversal pattern right at the SMA 30’s resistance. As of writing, the pair has been bearish. It may continue its move towards the South as the chart offers enough space to continue its journey. It may find its next support around 188.000.

On the contrary, if the price breaches the SMA 30’s resistance, the buyers may look to go long in the pair again. However, as things stand with the pair, it may not happen. Moreover, it surely will take time to happen. Meanwhile, the sellers are going to drive it towards the downside.

Price Action Analysis- H1 Chart

The chart shows that the price has been down trending by obeying a trend line. At the last rejection, it produced a bearish engulfing candle and made a strong bearish move. The sellers are going to wait for the price to consolidate and find resistance to drive the price towards the South further. The next bearish move may find the support around 189.000. Notably, the chart offers more space, so the journey may continue and end up being a long bearish journey.

The buyers, on the other hand, are to be very patient. They may not find their opportunities soon.
