Here’s one way for pound bulls to prep for the Bank of England policy meeting
Traders looking to get bullish on the British pound ahead of Thursday’s Bank of England meeting might want to try taking the dollar out of the equation, analysts said. Sterling (GBPUSD) hovered around a 7-month low versus the dollar ahead of the central bank meeting, thanks in part to a nearly relentless rally by the U.S. currency that began back in April. To get around that, traders looking for a more hawkish tone from the Bank of England might look to the euro-sterling (EURGBP) pair, which is also seen as a more accurate Brexit risk barometer, analysts said.

GBP/JPY Price Forecast – consolidation continues in The Dragon
The British pound has continued to consolidate against the Japanese yen during the trading session on Wednesday, as we hover around the ¥145 level. This is an area that obviously has a certain amount of psychological importance to it, as it is a large, round, whole number. Ultimately, I think that we are trying to calm down from trade war fears, and that could show up quite drastically in this pair.

Dollar steadies as trade-war worries cool—for now
The dollar saw muted action Wednesday, as major currency trading calmed somewhat, a day after fears of a trade war between China and the U.S. sparked fresh haven buying. The U.S. ICE Dollar Index (IFUS:DX-Y.NYB), which measures the greenback against a basket of six rivals, was little changed in negative territory at 95.095, after touching an 11-month peak on Tuesday, underlining a period of relative placidity after markets were thrown into a tizzy after the U.S. threatened to place tariffs on an additional $400 billion worth of Chinese imports and Beijing warned it would retaliate. A broader gauge of dollar strength, the WSJ Dollar Index (CALCULATED:BUXX), was 0.1% stronger at 88.31.

Technical Outlook For Important JPY Pairs: 20.06.2018
With the 109.55-50 support-region activating USDJPY’s U-turn, the pair seems eager enough to confront the support-turned-resistance line of 110.35 for one more time. If comparative USD strength clears the 110.35 barrier, the 110.80-85 horizontal-region and the 111.40 resistances should be watched closely as break of which could open the door for the pair’s rally towards 111.80 and 61.8% FE level of 112.30. On the contrary, pair’s failure to surpass the 110.35 TL can portray Breakout-Pullback-Continuation (BPC) formation, which in-turn highlight the 109.80 and the 109. ...
