To open long positions on GBP/USD you need:

Buyers of the British pound may resume an uptrend, but this will require a breakdown of the middle of the channel in the region of 1.3104, with a fixation above the resistance of 1.3159. Only after this will the prospect of updating the highs in the region of 1.3214 and 1.3260 open, where I recommend taking profits. However, a larger upward movement will depend on negotiations between British Prime Minister Theresa May and EU representatives. In case of a downward correction, I recommend buying the pound only if there is a false breakdown around 1.3053 or for a rebound from 1.2971.

To open short positions on GBP/USD you need:

An unfortunate consolidation above the resistance of 1.3104 will be the first signal to sell the British pound, however, the main goal of the sellers will be a breakthrough of support at 1.3053, which could lead to a further drop in GBP/USD with a low of 1.2971 and 1.2894, where I recommend taking profits. In case the pound increases above 1.3104, it's best to take a closer look at short positions after updating the high in the area of 1.3159 or at a rebound from the level of 1.3214. Any news of the failure of negotiations between May and EU representatives could lead to a rapid fall in the pound.
