The British pound has broken out up against the Japanese yen, gapping higher at the open on Monday. However, we are starting to see a little bit of exhaustion in the GBP/USD pair, which should have a bit of a “knock on” effect in this market. With that being the case, if that pair drops, I think we will see this market pull back to try to fill the gap from the open. We obviously look bullish, and with that being the case I do prefer buying, but I also recognize that this pair tends to be highly influenced by the risk appetite of markets overall. The more risk-taking there is, the more likely we are to see the GBP/USD pair rally.
