GBP/JPY is expected to trade with a bullish outlook above 148.20. The pair keeps trading on the upside after locating a key support at 148.20. The ascending 20-period moving average, which stands on the 50-period one, is providing extra support. And the relative strength index stays firm, showing sustained upward momentum for the pair. As intraday bullishness persists, the pair is expected to rise toward the first upside target at 149.40 and in extension, 149.90.

Alternatively, if the price moves in the direction opposite to the forecast, a short position is recommended below 148.20 with the target at 149.40.

Strategy: BUY, Stop Loss: 148.20, Take Profit: 149.40
