GBP/JPY Analysis

There's a nice downtrend on the daily timeframe so have been on the lookout for price action setups. Fridays close produced a inside bar. It is sitting near resistance so a break of the bigger mother candle needs to happen before i consider entering. This mini retrace here has also retraced 50% of the 5th July High. The inside bars have bounced twice off 8ema. Placing a order based on the break of the mother candle as per below:

STOP: 12745
ENTRY: 12674
LIMIT: 12532

RISK/REWARD: 2/1

Recent bearish movement in the euro seems to be picking up pace after a breather with the nice looking bearish pin bar candle. Today it retraced the 4th July high by 61.8% fib and turned back.
