16.11.201808:40 Forex-elemzések és áttekintések: GBP/USD: plan for the European session on November 16. The question of Brexit remains open

To open long positions for GBP/USD, it is required:

The growth potential of the pound will be limited by the resistance of 1.2831, so it is best to open long positions today in the first half of the day after a breakthrough and consolidation on this range in order to update the highs of 1.2890 and 1.2960, where I recommend taking profits. In the event of a decline, the support will be provided by the intermediate area of 1.2761, but I recommend opening long positions immediately for a rebound after the test of the low of 1.2703 and 1.2663.

To open short positions for GBP/USD, it is required:

An unsuccessful consolidation above the resistance of 1.2831 will be a signal to open short positions in order to decrease to the area of the first support of 1.2761, the breakdown of which will lead to a larger sell-off of the GBP/USD with a minimum test of 1.2703 and 1.2663, where I recommend taking profit. In case of positive news on Brexit, a breakthrough of 1.2831 will lead to an increase in the pound. In this scenario, it is best to open short positions by rebounding from the high of 1.2891 and 1.2962.
