The currency pair GBP / USD on the eve of the EU summit is trading very restrained, being located close to its local maximums. Traders are clearly waiting for information on the course of negotiations, and we believe that the likelihood of failure of negotiations is also quite large this time. As we have repeatedly written, the "deal" on Brexit is needed more precisely by the UK and Theresa May. But it is precisely the United Kingdom that does not want to make new concessions to the European Union, which simply rejects all plans of May. Key questions on Brexit remain unresolved. In addition to the EU summit, a report on inflation in the UK will be published today, and in the evening, the minutes of the last Fed meeting. The latter, traditionally, is unlikely to provoke a reaction from traders. It rarely happens when the minutes of the Fed meeting contain some unexpected information. But inflation in the UK can cause a significant market reaction. Forecasts suggest that this indicator may accelerate in September to 2.8% y / y. As long as this indicator is around 3%, traders are unlikely to be greatly discouraged by its change of 0.1% or 0.2%. A value above 3% may cause pressure on the British pound, and the Bank of England will have to think about how to begin to contain inflation.

Trading recommendations:
The currency pair GBP / USD continues to be located just above the MA and is adjusted again. Thus, it is recommended to open buy orders after turning the Heikin Ashi indicator up with the target of 1.3245. You should also carefully monitor any information from the EU summit, as it can greatly affect the movement of the pair.
Sell positions will become relevant after the price is fixed below the moving average line and, preferably, below the Murray level "7/8". The goal, in this case, will be the level of Murray 1.3062, and the tendency for the instrument to change to a downward one.
In addition to the technical picture should also take into account the fundamental data and the time of their release.
