GBP/JPY Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 171.89; (P) 172.13; (R1) 172.40;
With 172.57 resistance intact, deeper decline is still expected in GBP/JPY for 169.53 key support level. Current development suggests medium term topping at 175.36 and sustained break of 169.53 will confirm this bearish case. Nonetheless, break of 172.57 resistance will indicate near term bottoming and turn bias back to the upside.
In the bigger picture, the up trend from 116.83 (2011 low) continued to lose upside momentum. This could be seen in bearish divergence condition in daily MACD. And, weekly MACD continued to trend down. The acceleration in fall from 175.36 affirms the reversal case. Focus is now on 169.53 key support level. Decisive break will confirm topping and would bring deeper fall back to 55 weeks EMA (now at 165.79) and below.
EUR/JPY Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 137.60; (P) 137.77; (R1) 138.08;
Intraday bias in EUR/JPY remains neutral for the moment. With 138.02 resistance intact, deeper decline is mildly in favor for 135.50 key support level. Decisive break there will carry larger bearish implications. Nonetheless, break of 138.02 will indicate near term reversal and turn outlook bullish for stronger rebound back to 139.27 resistance.
In the bigger picture, loss of upside momentum was seen in bearish divergence condition in weekly MACD. However, EUR/JPY is so far holding above 135.50 key support. Thus, there is no confirmation of trend reversal yet. Break of 145.68 will extend the up trend from 94.11 towards 76.4% retracement of 169.96 to 94.11 at 152.59 before topping. Meanwhile, break of 135.50 will confirm reversal and target 124.95 support.
