January 28, 2014 3:15 pm
Overview:
GBP/JPY is expected to consolidate. It is undermined by diminished investor risk appetite and Japan’s exports volumes. But GBP/JPY downside move is limited by the demand from the Japanese importers and position adjustments of traders ahead of the Fed’s policy announcement Wednesday. Daily chart is still negative-biased as MACD and stochastics are bearish,5 and 15 day moving averages are falling.
