GBP/JPY is moving down inside the Clear Triangle chart pattern identified by Autochartist on the daily charts. Autochartist rates the overall Quality of this chart pattern at the 6 bar level as a result of the low Initial Trend (measured at the 3 bar level), above-average Uniformity (6 bars) and substantial Clarity (8 bars). This Triangle continues the predominant downtrend visible on the daily and the weekly GBP/JPY charts. The top of this chart pattern (point A on the chart below) formed when the pair reversed down from the resistance area made out of the 38,2% Fibonacci Retracement of the previous extended weekly downward price impulse from the August of 2009 as well as the resistance level 135.00 (as is shown on the second chart below). The pair is expected to fall further toward the lower support trendline of this Triangle in the nearest time.
