FX.co ★ Elliott wave analysis of GBP/JPY for September 10, 2020

GBP/JPY made a second and deeper decline to the low of 136.71 before taking off as expected. The break above minor resistance at 137.83 was the first good indication that red wave iv/ has completed, while a break above resistance at 138.39 will confirm the corrective low and the on-set of a new impulsive rally.

Resistance at 138.39 has only been tested, but we feel comfortable that this resistance will be broken on the next attempt and a rally higher to the next solid resistance at 140.10 is in the cards.

R3: 139.44
