- GBP/JPY rises 0.53% as buyers defend key support, holding near recent highs.
- RSI below 50 signals fading bullish momentum and growing downside risk.

GBP/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook
The GBP/JPY seems poised to consolidate further below 202.00 unless buyers gain momentum, which seem far from happening as shown by the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The RSI is edging further below its 50 neutral level an indication that bears are stepping in.
If GBP/JPY tumbles below 201.00 the next support would be 199.61 ahead of the October 2 low of 197.49. Once surpassed, the next stop would be the 200-day SMA at 195.85.
Conversely if GBP/JPY recovers above 202.00, the next resistance will be the 20-day SMA At 202.32. A breach of the latter will expose 203.00, followed by the 204.00 milestone.
