GBP/JPY Technical Analysis: Bullish continuation pattern spotted on 1-hourly chart

   “¢   The cross came under some renewed selling pressure on Monday and dropped to the lower end of a near three-day-old trading range during the early European session.

   “¢   The range bounce price-action constituted to the formation of a rectangle, which given the recent up-move might be categorized as bullish continuation chart pattern.  

   “¢   Moreover, the fact that the cross remains above important intraday moving averages – 100 & 200-hour SMA, add credence to the near-term constructive outlook.

   “¢   Meanwhile, technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart have been gaining negative momentum but have still managed to hold in the bullish territory on 4-hourly/daily charts.
