GBPJPY – The British Pound continues to strengthen against the US Dollar and Japanese Yen. Yet relatively neutral retail trading crowd sentiment suggests that a major move higher remains somewhat unlikely. Our Speculative Sentiment Index shows there are 1.11 traders short for every one long. We would ideally see a stronger bias before making a forecast with more conviction, and indeed it seems entirely possible that the pair continues its recent consolidation pattern between ¥128 and ¥132.
