The GBP/JPY pair's surge eventually encountered resistance in the weekly R1 simple pivot point at 162.61. Afterwards, a decline followed, which on Tuesday morning found support in the 162.00 level. In the meantime, the rate appears to be also being impacted by the support of the 50, 100 and 200-hour simple moving averages in the 161.75/161.95 range.

In the case that the pair reaches above the weekly R1 pivot point at 162.61, the rate could encounter resistance in the upper trend line of a channel up pattern and the 163.00 mark. A breaking of the pattern and the 163.00 level would highly likely result in a move up to the weekly R2 at 163.69 and the August high level zone at 163.55/163.90.

However, a decline of the Pound against the Yen would look for support in the 161.70/162.00 range where the weekly simple pivot point and the 50, 100 and 200-hour simple moving averages are located at. Further below, note the 161.50 level and the lower trend line of the channel.
