Meanwhile, a 50-hour EMA level of 141.63 becomes the nearby support to watch in case sellers sneak in, a break of which will highlight 141.15 support confluence including 100-hour EMA and an ascending trend line from August 24.
Should GBP/JPY prices slip below 141.15, sellers may wait for a clear break of 141.00 to challenge the 140.00 threshold.
