GBP/JPY picks up bids to refresh intraday high near 185.45 as bulls attack the 100-Hour Moving Average (HMA) during the first positive day in three amid early Monday. In doing so, the cross-currency pair extends the previous day’s rebound from a one-week-old horizontal support area to poke the key moving average.
Adding strength to the bullish bias are the upbeat MACD signals and the RSI (14) line, which in turn suggests the quote’s further upside past the immediate 100-HMA hurdle of around 185.50.
That said, the support-turned-resistance line from August 07, close to 186.10 at the latest, acts as the final defense of the GBP/JPY bears.
Following that, the pair’s uptrend towards challenging the multi-year high marked the last week around 186.50, as well as the November 2015 high of 188.40, can’t be ruled out.
On the flip side, a clear break of the aforementioned horizontal support zone of around 184.70-60, becomes necessary for the intraday sellers.
Even so, the 200-HMA support of around 184.45 and the double tops marked on August 10–11 near 184.25-20, could challenge the GBP/JPY bears.
In a case where the quote remains bearish past 184.20, the 184.00 round figure and the monthly low of around 180.60 will be in the spotlight
