The GBPJPY pair rebounded after testing 151.00 support level on Friday, where the short term structure remains slightly bullish, however with a risk of sideways trading. We will maintain our positive view so long as 151.00 horizontal support and the ascending trend line for the latest bullish wave are intact(shown on image), eying a retest of the recently recorded high near 154.00 level. In contrast, a break below the aformentioned technical support levels could lead to the bottom of the range-bound near 147.00.
