If you think that the strong down movement that you have seen in the GBPJPY last week is simply due to the Greece financial problem, you are in for a surprise. What actually happen is a combination of fundamental together with technical that cause the GBPJPY to spiral down so badly.
If you remember that I have warned you about the symmetrical triangle forming on the 4 hour chart in last week forex signals. There is a successful breakout last week and this is also one of the factors that push the market down last week.
Those of you who know how to do price projection will know that the price moves down more than the projected value. This is because of the reaction of traders to the fundamental news last week as well.
