To open long positions on GBP/USD, you need:
Nothing has changed from a technical point of view. Bulls attempted to grow above the upper limit of the side channel, but failed to break it, which only led to moving this level to the 1.2475 area. Now trading is conducted in the middle of the channel, and I do not recommend taking any actions from there. While the pair is above the 1.2315 area, we can expect continued growth of GBP/USD in the resistance area of 1.2475, the breakout of which will provide a direct path to the highs of 1.2605 and 1.2686, where I recommend taking profits. However, given that the report on the index of activity in the UK services sector is coming out today, which is likely to significantly slow down, we can expect a second correction of the pound to the support of 1.2315. However, I recommend opening long positions from it only after forming a false breakout. It is best to wait for the test of the low of 1.2150, or buy immediately for a rebound from the level of 1.1985.
To open short positions on GBP/USD, you need:
Sellers of the pound have already approached the support of 1.2315 four times, but they have not managed to break below this range. Bears need to try to return the market under their control, and to do this, it is necessary to consolidate below the 1.2315 level, which will lead to a larger sell-off of GBP/USD to the area of the lows of 1.2150 and 1.1985, where I recommend taking profits. This can be helped by today's data on the index for the UK service sector, which will be sharply reduced due to the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. The 1.1985 support test will also indicate the resumption of the bear market. If the bulls try to regain the upward trend, the formation of a false breakout in the resistance area of 1.2475 will be the first signal to open short positions. Otherwise, it is best to sell the pound on a rebound from the highs of 1.2605 and 1.2686.
