GBP/JPY remains within a short-term
ascending triangle-like structure, with higher lows developing from the sharp
August reversal low. However, recent price action has pulled back from
resistance and is now testing the rising trendline that has supported the
recovery over recent weeks.
POC
acting as resistance
The 216.90–217.00 region remains a
significant resistance area. Price has approached this zone multiple times
during August but has struggled to establish acceptance above it. The latest
rejection has triggered another move back toward support.
Trendline Support Under Pressure
The rising trendline connecting the August
lows is now being tested near 216.40–216.50. This support level has repeatedly
attracted buyers throughout the recovery and remains a key area for maintaining
the current structure.
Volume Profile Highlights a Key Value
Zone
The volume profile shows the largest
concentration of trading activity around 216.80–217.00, placing current price
just below a major value area. This suggests the market remains close to an
important balance point where previous buying and selling activity was
concentrated.
RSI Returns to Neutral Territory
The RSI has declined to approximately 46,
slipping below the neutral 50 level after previously reaching overbought
conditions above 70. This reflects a moderation in momentum rather than a
decisive shift in trend.
Market Remains Between Support and
Resistance
Price
is currently caught between rising trendline support and horizontal resistance
near 217.00. The narrowing space between these levels suggests the market is
approaching a decision point after several weeks of consolidation
