GBP/JPY Technical Analysis: Bulls await a convincing break through 200-day SMA

   “¢   The cross reversed an early dip to sub-147.00 level and is now looking to build on its recent recovery move further beyond the very important 200-day SMA.  

   “¢   Mixed technical indicators on the daily chart are yet to catch up with last week’s strong rebound from over seven-week lows and seemed to be only factor capping gains.

   “¢   Hence, it would be prudent to wait for a strong follow-through buying beyond the mentioned barrier before positioning for any further near-term appreciating move.

   “¢   A convincing breakthrough is likely to prompt some aggressive short-covering move and lift the cross further beyond the 149.00 handle, towards Sept./Oct. swing highs.
