GBP/JPY is the high-risk, volatile currency combination. In fact, during the financial collapse of 2008, the pair moved over 7000 pips; a phenomenon that was simply unheard of.

Depending upon your individual trading style, this volatility is either a highly desired or highly disliked. It should only ever be traded where protective stop-loss orders are used. This pair's significant risks make it highly unsuitable for novices but it is an ideal instrument for traders with more experience and a libertine approach to risk.

Please note that changes in the UK and Japan economies usually affect the GBP/JPY quotes. The RSI indicator and support/resistance levels are two excellent ways to determine entry and exit points in the short, medium and long term. Average daily range – 172 points.
