GBP/JPY is expected to trade in a lower range. The stalls below its key resistance at 187.25 and remains under pressure. The descending 50-period intraday MA maintains a bearish bias. And the intraday RSI lacks upward momentum.The first downside target is therefore set at the horizontal support overlaping yesterday's low of185.25. A breakout below this level would open the way to further weakness toward 184.10. Only a break above the key resistance at 187.25 would call for further upside toward yesterday's high of 188.15 at first and then toward 188.70.
