FX.co ★ Elliott wave analysis of GBP/JPY for February 5, 2021

GBP/JPY continues to push higher as expected. After a dip to 142.84 (a little lower that our ideal 142.92) GBP/JPY started to rally again and broke above the former peak at 144.10 for a continuation towards the minor green wave v/ target between 144.70 - 145.15. Once green sub-wave v/ completes we should see another corrective set-back close to 142.84, but to secure the base for the next impulsive rally towards 147.96 and ultimately above here too.

Support is now seen at 143.96.

R3: 145.99

Trading recommendation:

We are long GBP from 142.27 and we will move our stop higher to 142.75
