GBP/JPY Technical Analysis: Bearish double-top formation on short-term chart

   •  The cross struggled to build on the overnight upsurge and now seems to have formed a bearish double-top chart pattern near the 142.65-70 region on the 30-min. chart.

   •  Technical indicators on the mentioned chart have started drifting into bearish territory and further add credence to the bearish formation. 

   •  The pattern, however, will be confirmed only once the cross decisively breaks below the neckline support near the 142.00 round figure mark.
