GBP/JPY slowly approaching 20-day SMA

Bearish tendency, which lasted for the lastthree days was stopped today, and now a bullish reaction takes place. If the movement upwards proceeds, then GBP/JPY might reach a 20-day SMA at 122.700, which might prove to be a strong resistance for the current rally. If it fails to reverse trend back to bearish, then next resistance at 122.900 (Monthly PP) might give some bearish impetus.
