Overview: GBP/JPY is consolidating with bullish bias as markets await U.S. Non-Farm Payrolls report. GBP/JPY is supported by more-aggressive-than-expected BOJ asset-purchase program aimed at achieving its 2% inflation target; positive global risk sentiment; demand from Japan importers. But GBP/JPY gains tempered by Japan exporter sales; positions adjustment before weekend. Daily chart is positive-biased; MACD and stochastics have turned bullish. Recommendation: Buy above 145.2 with upside targets at 147.8 and 148.5. Resistance levels: R1 – 147.8 R2 – 148.5 R3 – 149 Alternative scenario: Sell below 145.2 with downside targets at 144.6 and 144.2. Support levels: S1 – 144.6 S2 – 144.2 S3 – 143.5
