GBPJPY – Retail FX traders have bought aggressively into Japanese Yen weakness (sold GBPJPY and USDJPY gains), and a contrarian view of crowd sentiment leaves us in favor of continued declines.
Trade Implications – GBPJPY:It was two weeks ago when we noted that a sharp build in GBPJPY selling pointed to further gains. Clearly the Bank of Japan had something to do with the Sterling’s subsequent ~1000 pip surge, and luck played an even-larger role than usual in this particular forecast. Until sentiment changes we see little reason to change our trading bias.
