2026/06/01 GBP/JPY Trade Strategy

Today's GBP/JPY call: Buy.
Just a moment ago, a little before 10 am JST (01:00 UTC), there was a good entry point.
I’d like to buy either on another shallow pullback or after price breaks above.
As for the market context, both the daily chart and the 4-hour chart are taking on an uptrend shape, and the 1-hour chart has also made a bullish shift.
For now, there isn’t much reason to consider selling.
The only thing is that the 4-hour chart is near the highs, so I think there will be some selling pressure around Line A.
If it breaks above Line A, it might rally sharply.
Review

It was Scenario B.
This was a long from circle ①, the pullback after price broke above the recent high once the scenario had been written.
Price then broke through Line A, so I held on expecting more upside, but it formed a head and shoulders and started turning down (making lower highs), so at that point I exited. 20 pips
If you couldn’t get in at circle ①, entering from circle ② after the break is fine too.
In the end it didn’t extend, so it would have been a small profit or a breakeven exit.
I didn’t get the scenario out in time, but the blue circle first thing in the morning was the easiest entry opportunity.
