Technical Analysis – GBPJPY Confirms Double Top

The GBP/JPY pair broke below a Triangle chart pattern as well as a Double-Top pattern neckline on the daily chart on Friday. This happened as the British Pound dropped like a hot rock on Brexit anticipations. While the pair attempts to correct some of the losses, it already opened below the triangle on Sunday’s Sydney session. This could indicate further declines in the coming days, especially since the pair remains below the Ichimoku cloud.

Long Term View

The GBP/JPY pair is below the Ichimoku cloud on the monthly chart as well. Further, it has yet to complete a cycle back to lows of 2012 at 120.

So this could also be yet another signal that the pair could drop a bit further before (potentially) bottoming out.

Economic Calendar

Monday:

The US, Canada and Japan are on a bank holiday today so we could expect less volatility on the USD, CAD and JPY crosses. However early during the London session we do have the Swiss Unemployment Rate  at 5:45 AM GMT, followed by German Trade Balance at 6 AM. During the next day’s Asian session Japan’s Current Account will be out at 11:50 PM GMT, which could have an impact on the GBP/JPY pair.

Fundamentals

Bank of England (BoE) officials are scheduled to speak over the days ahead. This could cast additional pressure on Mr. Pound. However, Friday’s flash crash in the GBP may encourage the central bank to endorse a wait-and-see approach for monetary policy as it heightens the risk of overshooting the 2% target for inflation.

Trading Strategy – GBPJPY Confirms Double Top

Market sentiment is pretty mixed at the moment as many traders are jumping on bullish positions to ride the potential GBP/JPY correction beginning of the week.

Bullish Scenario: Short term bullish targeting 129.50

For long-term bullish, we need a break above 135 pivot and the Ichimoku cloud first.

Bearish Scenario: Entry point: 129:50

Target: 125 and 120 in extension.

Both scenarios are pretty high risk and are only recommended to traders with high risk tolerance.

Here are Invest Diva’s calculations for important USD/USD  approximate levels to keep an eye on from a long-term perspective:

Support Levels Turning Point Resistance Levels
120 129.50 138.35
125 135 143.22

Bitcoin Drops Entering 2026: Is It Still Worth Investing? The Answer Most Investors Miss

Bitcoin has entered 2026 under pressure, with prices pulling back after a volatile period that left many investors questioning whether the opportunity has passed. Headlines are once again split between fear and optimism, with some calling the recent drop a warning sign and others viewing it as a healthy reset.

Unlike speculative assets that rely on constant growth stories, Bitcoin’s relevance continues to rest on its role as a scarce, decentralised digital asset that operates outside traditional financial systems. The key question for investors now is not whether Bitcoin will remain volatile – but whether this moment represents risk, opportunity, or something most investors misunderstand.

Why Big Tech Is Quietly Buying Western Digital (WDC) Stock

Western Digital Corporation (WDC) has been on a tear, its stock price soaring over 270% year-to-date as of early December 2025.

This massive growth isn’t just hype; it’s fueled by a perfect storm of events, including the strategic spin-off of its flash business, SanDisk, and an insatiable global demand for data storage driven by the AI revolution.

As a now “pure-play” Hard Disk Drive (HDD) manufacturer, WDC is uniquely positioned as the landlord for the internet’s exploding data. But with such a meteoric rise, is there still room for growth, or is the stock overheated?
