Overall, GBP/JPY is trending downwards. Recently, GBP/JPY trended into the resistance zone of 136.200. Yesterday, the Bank of England (BoE) kept interest rate unchanged at 0.10%. Although the central bank did not carry out any new monetary policy changes, they were discussing on how to implement negative interest rates effectively in a scenario whereby the UK economy worsens. The UK Retail Sales m/m data (Forecast: 0.8%, Previous: 3.6%) will be released later at 1400 (SGT). The Japanese banks will be closed in observance of Respect-for-the-Aged Day. Lower trading volume and volatility is expected during the Japanese trading hours. Currently, GBP/JPY is bouncing off the resistance zone of 136.200 and the next support zone is at 133.780. With the dovish outlook from the BoE, look for selling opportunities of GBP/JPY.
