To open long positions on GBP / USD , you need:
Buyers once again coped with the task of keeping the pair above 1.2730. At the moment, bulls need a breakthrough and consolidation above resistance 1.2804, which will lead to a larger upward correction and return the pair near the upper border of the side channel 1.2847, where I recommend taking profits. Also, you can look at long positions when forming a false breakdown in the area of intermediate support 1.2763. In the case of a large drop in the pound, purchases can be returned from the low of the month 1.2730 subject to the formation of a false breakdown or from the new levels 1.2663 and 1.2625.
To open short positions on GBP / USD, you need:
The bears have to rely on a return under the support level of 1.2763, which will open a direct road to the region of the large level 1.2730 which has already been repeatedly tested by sellers of the pound. Its breakdown will lead to a rapid decline in GBP / USD with the updating of monthly lows in the area of 1.2663 and 1.2625, where I recommend taking profits. In the case of growth above 1.2804, in the first half of the day, it is best to return to sales of the pound to rebound from the upper limit of the side channel 1.2847.
