The GBP/JPY begins Tuesday's Asian session mostly unchanged, trading at 193.63, below the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 193.91, as it consolidates on top and below of the latter. The cross pair remains steady within the 192.70 - 193.98 range, with buyers unable to extend its gains.
The GBP/JPY is neutral to upward biased, with buyers' lack of strength to push prices above the 200-day SMA, so they would shift the bias to bullish. Even though price action is above the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo), bulls must clear 194.00 alongside the March 28 peak of 195.71, so the uptrend could resume.
Key resistance levels lie above the latter, like 196.00 and the January 7 daily high of 198.24. On the flip side, if GBP/JPY tumbles below the confluence of the top of the Kumo and the 100-day SMA around 192.89/193.00, this could exacerbate a retest of 191.81, where the Kijun-sen lies, followed by the 50-day SMA at 191.63.
