  • The GBP/JPY hourly chart shows lower highs and lower lows pattern, meaning the JPY bulls (or GBP/JPY bears) are gaining strength.
  • The key moving averages (50,100 and 200) are trending south, indicating the path of least resistance is to the downside. The 50-hour MA is all set to cross the 200-hour MA in a GBP bearish manner. And last but not the least, the RSI has rolled over in favor of the bears.
  • Hence, the cross could soon explore levels below 147.20 (38.2% Fib R of June 28 low – July 16 high).
