The GBP/JPY has put in a price bottom last week when it rebounded from just under 176 for the 3rd time, this time breaking above the 180 handle. Then, we started this week with a brief pullback, but traders respected the price bottom and GBP/JPY bounced off the 200-period SMA in the 4H chart. This is a bullish slingshot signal, and price indeed extended higher.GBP/JPY 4H Chart 2/11 (click to enlarge) Now, as GBP/JPY continues to rally today, it will be approaching the 184 handle. Reaching 184 will essentially reach a bullish breakout target based on a range between 176-180 (400 pips). Also, the 184 level is likely to show resistance because of a falling trendline coming down from 2014's high at 189.70. Now, if price pulls back but remains above 180, then the 184 resistance will become more vulnerable.
