• GBP/JPY is trading almost flat near the 172.00 mark as market sentiment dips due to a lack of agreement between the White House and the US Congress.
• GBP/JPY maintains an upward bias despite the stall in its rally towards the falling-wedge measured objective of 174.30.
• Clearing the 173.00 area could pave the way toward the 174.00 figure.
• Negative divergence between GBP/JPY price action and the RSI signals a pullback.

The pair currently trades last at 172.000.

The previous day high was 172.58 while the previous day low was 171.2. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 172.05, expected to provide resistance. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 171.73, expected to provide support.

GBP/JPY retraces from around the 172.60 area and hovers nearby the 172.00 figure as market sentiment deteriorates. Failure to reach an agreement between the White House (WH) and the US Congress dampened investors’ mood as the June 1 deadline approached. As the Asian session begins, the GBP/JPY is trading at 172.01, almost flat.

The GBP/JPY is still upward biased, but since the break of a falling wedge, the pair’s rally towards the measured objective at 174.30 stalled. In three consecutive sessions, the GBP/JPY failed to reach the 173.00 area, which, once cleared, could pave the way towards the 174.00 figure, ahead of getting the measured objective of the falling wedge.

Nevertheless, as the GBP/JPY price action achieved successive higher highs, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator prints lower peaks. That means a negative divergence between price action and the RSI could open the door for a pullback.

Hence, the GBP/JPY first support is the 172.00 mark. A break below and the GBP/JPY will get to the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 170.20, with the 170.00 figure up for grabs.
