GBP/JPY 4H Chart: Pound gains ground
The highly demanded GBP/JPY currency pair has continued to surge. However, it has not occurred in the previously drawn long term channel.
Instead there have been various non-forecasted fluctuations. Although, such events are in general expected from this exchange rate. Due to that reason the Dukascopy research team has adjusted also the long term patterns.
In regards to the near future, during the review a junior channel up pattern was mapped. It is highly likely that this channel together with other support levels will force the rate through the monthly R1 and push higher.

The GBP/JPY pair has once more broken various patterns and ignored various levels of significance due to a fundamental event. Although, due to the still high demand for the currency pair on the Swiss Foreign Exchange, a review of the pair is conducted by the Dukascopy Analytics team.
During the latest fall of the currency exchange rate the pair plummeted through two support clusters at 152.50 and 151.90 until it was finally stopped near the 150.30 level. At that level the most dominant pattern’s support line and the monthly S2 are located.
The support has forced a rebound, which on Friday was being slowed down by the 200-period SMA at the 151.30 mark.
