"The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent" and this aphorism is more true than ever if you look at GBP/JPY. Since mid April this market has gone in straight line for 10 consecutive weeks posting the longest weekly green run since 1995.

GBPUSD Fractal Map Part 2
Cable's price action looks quite familiar and it's a fractal of the 1992-2000 price action (see Figure 1).
