Overview:
GBP/JPY is expected to consolidate with bullish bias as markets await U.S. FOMC interest rate decision. GBP/JPY is supported by improved investor risk sentiment and demand from the Japan importers. But EUR/JPY gains are tempered by Japan’s exporter sales. Daily chart is mixed as MACD is bearish, five and 15-day moving averages are declining; but stochastics is turned to bullish in oversold zone.
Trading recommendation:
The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a higher range as far as it remains above its pivot point.
