To open long positions on GBP/USD you need:
Further movement of the pound will depend entirely on what the new British prime minister will be talking about after he officially takes office. Buyers will expect a softer tone in relation to the EU and Brexit, which can support the pound, and a breakthrough and consolidation above the resistance of 1.2454 will be the first signal to open long positions based on updating highs of 1.2495 and 1.2533, where I recommend to take profits. Upon reaching these levels, bears will try to counterattack. If the pressure on GBP/USD continues, and buyers miss support at 1.2419, then in this scenario, it is best to look for new long positions if there is a false breakdown around the intermediate low of 1.2383, but more optimal purchases are seen in areas of 1.2383.
To open short positions on GBP/USD you need:
The pressure on the pound will immediately return as soon as Boris Johnson speaks in a negative tone about Brexit and relations with the EU. Given that he is a supporter of a hard scenario, it will not be entirely correct to wait for soft statements. The breakthrough of support at 1.2419, exactly like the formation of a false breakdown in the resistance area of 1.2454, will increase the pressure on GBP/USD and lead to the continuation of the downward movement, which will head towards lows of 1.2383 and 1.2342, where I recommend to take profit. It should be noted that the test of support at 1.2342 will indicate the pound's return to the medium-term descending channel. In case there is growth in the pair during the first half of the day, above a resistance of 1.2454, a more appropriate level for opening short positions will be a high of 1.2495.
