GBP/JPY Technical Analysis: bulls likely to aim towards an important horizontal resistance

   “¢   A positive outcome from a crucial Brexit meeting on Friday underpinned the British Pound, which coupled with fading safe-haven demand kept pushing the cross higher at the start of a new trading week.  

   “¢   The cross has been climbing alongside an ascending trend-line on the 4-hourly chart and was now seen building on last week’s bullish breakthrough 200-period SMA, for the first time since late-April.

   “¢   With technical indicators on the mentioned chart holding in positive territory, the cross seems all set to extend the momentum further towards an important horizontal hurdle.
