To open long positions on GBPUSD, you need:

From a technical point of view, nothing special happened in the first half of the day, except that the bulls failed to hold the pair above the support of 1.2852, and the bears did not offer anything below this level. As a result, no entry points were formed, and the level of 1.2852 was blurred. If you look at the hourly chart, you will see that the resistance of 1.2899 remains the benchmark for buyers. But only a consolidation at this level will be a signal to buy the pound in the expectation of continuing the bull market to the maximum area of 1.2961. The longer-term goal will be the range of 1.3025, where I recommend fixing the profits. However, such growth can be expected only after the release of fairly good fundamental data on the US economy. If the GBP/USD falls again in the second half of the day to the new support area of 1.2840, I recommend opening long positions from there only after forming a false breakout. If the bulls do not show activity in this area, it is best to postpone long positions until the update of the minimum of 1.2786 or buy the pound immediately on the rebound from the support of 1.2725 in the expectation of a correction of 30-40 points within the day.

To open short positions on GBPUSD, you need:

An unsuccessful attempt to break below the support of 1.2852 left the market on the side of the bulls and according to the chart, the bears are not in a hurry to return. Now everything will depend on the report on consumer confidence in the US, which will become a new benchmark in the market in the afternoon. The formation of a false breakout at 1.2899 will be the first signal to open short positions against the trend. However, a more important task for the bears will be to regain support for 1.2840. Only fixing below it will increase the pressure on the pair and lead to a downward correction to the area of the minimum of 1.2786, where I recommend fixing the profits. The area of 1.2725 will be a more distant target. If sellers do not hurry to return to the market and miss the resistance of 1.2899 in the second half of the day, it is best to abandon short positions before updating the maximum of 1.2961 or sell GBP/USD immediately on the rebound from the resistance of 1.3025 in the calculation of a correction of 30-40 points within the day.
