FX.co ★ Elliott wave analysis of GBP/JPY for October 7 - 2019

GBP/JPY is expected to reach our target at 130.78 before turning higher but we are starting to see a real loss of downside momentum. The low ,for now, has been 131.20 and a final dip closer to our ideal target remains a possibility as long as minor resistance at 132.05 is able to cap the upside.

A break above resistance at 132.05 will be the first warning that a bottom already could be in place and red wave iii higher to 139.15 is developing. A break above 132.55 will confirm that the low and the new impulsive rally are unfolding.

R3: 133.36

R2: 132.85

R1: 132.55

Pivot: 132.05

S1: 131.47

S2: 131.20

S3: 130.78

Trading recommendation:

We bought GBP at 131.25 and we have placed our stop at 130.25
