To open long positions on GBP/USD you need:
Pound buyers will try to focus on good data on inflation in the UK, however, as we remember, yesterday the report on the labor market did little to help. In a decline scenario for long positions, you can take a closer look at the support test of 1.2383, with the condition to confirm divergence on the MACD indicator, or to open long positions to rebound from a low of 1.2342. The main task of the bulls will be to return and consolidate above the resistance of 1.2452 and a test of the high of 1.2498, where I recommend to take profit.
To open short positions on GBP/USD you need:
Bears will try to reach the support level of 1.2383 in the first half of the day, but a further downward trend will depend on its breakthrough. If we manage to consolidate below this range, then we can count on GBP/USD to decline to the area of monthly lows of 1.2342 and 1.2266, where I recommend taking profits. With the growth of the pound on the data on inflation in the first half of the day, you can take a closer look at short positions on a false breakdown around 1.2452 or on a rebound from the high of 1.2498.
