GBP/JPY Technical Analysis: Remains confined in a range near 100-hour EMA after mixed UK jobs data

   “¢   The cross extended its sideways consolidative price action around 100-hour SMA, with today’s mixed UK employment details also failing to provide any meaningful impetus.

   “¢   The fact that technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart have struggled to gain positive traction seemed to be the only factor capping the overnight bounce from 200-EMA.

   “¢   Meanwhile, oscillators on 4-hourly/daily charts maintained their bullish bias and support prospects for additional gains/extension of the last week’s strong bullish momentum.

   “¢   However, a convincing break below the 200-hour EMA, currently near the 147.00 handle, might negate the constructive outlook and prompt some aggressive long-unwinding trade.
