GBP/JPY has pulled back up to resistance at 186.51 in a counter-trend reaction after plumbing new lows.
The descending sequence of peaks and troughs since the September 2 high suggests the pair is in a short-term downtrend.
Since it is a principle of technical analysis that "the trend is your friend" more weakness is expected.
There is every chance, therefore, that the pull back will soon run out of steam and prices will resume their downtrend.
A break below the 183.72 (September 11 low) would confirm a lower low to the next bearish target at 182.82 (August 6 swing low), followed by 180.06, the low of August 5.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) momentum indicator is showing bullish convergence with price. On September 4 RSI entered oversold territory when price bottomed; on September 12 price is even lower but RSI is actually higher. The non-correspondence is a mildly bullish indication.
