Today's Scenario: - On Tuesday, the British pound initially dipped but then showed strength against the Japanese yen, which is weakening against other currencies. The market is approaching the top of the range with 166 being a significant resistance level. Despite potential selling pressure, the market is likely to find buyers on dips.

Buy Scenario: - The 50-Day EMA is near 162.50 and has recently crossed above the 200-Day EMA, which suggests that the market will find buying opportunities. However, the market may continue to see a lot of volatility due to risk appetite moves. If the market can break above the shooting star formed last week, it has a better chance of going "buy-and-hold." Till we do not advise to buy GBP/JPY.

Sell Scenario: - On the other hand, if the market breaks down below the moving averages, it could lead to a move towards the 160 level, which is a previous support level and a psychologically significant figure. However, the recent pullback was shallower than the previous one, indicating that more pressure is building to the upside. If interest rates rise, the Bank of Japan's yield curve control policy will put pressure on the Japanese yen., we do not advise to sell GBP/JPY.

Support and Resistance Level: -
