GBP/JPY Analysis

The GBP/JPY pair has been stabilizing of the last couple of sessions, and it is likely that we could see a short-term bounce. Because of this, the second trade is probably going to be the more likely of the 2 trades I have put here. However, it’s hard to deny that this pair is in a massive downtrend, so at this point in time I am not looking to buy the British pound against the Japanese yen, and they do believe that eventually we break down below the 125 handle as momentum continues to carry us.
