To open long positions on GBPUSD, you need:
In my morning forecast, I paid attention to the purchase of the pound after the breakout and consolidation above the resistance of 1.2921. On the 5-minute chart, a quick breakdown of 1.2921 led to a sharp increase in the pair against the background of the demolition of sellers' stop orders, however, it was not possible to wait for a convenient entry point to long positions on the top-down test of this area. As a result, according to my trading system, I was not able to enter long positions. Now, the main task of the bulls is to keep the pair above the level of 1.2921, and if the pound falls to this range, you can expect re-loading buyers into the market. However, be careful, as we are waiting for a report on the volume of retail sales in the United States, which can significantly affect the dollar. In case of good data and lack of activity in the support area of 1.2921, I recommend that you postpone long positions until the test of a larger minimum of 1.2843, based on a correction of 30-40 points within the day. If the data disappoints buyers of the US dollar, then a break and consolidation above 1.2991 will form an additional entry point into long positions, the main goal of which will be to update the maximum of 1.3103, where I recommend fixing the profits. However, such a large increase in the pound can only be expected if the Federal Reserve takes a very conservative approach to monetary policy.
To open short positions on GBPUSD, you need to:
The bears did not have enough strength to defend the resistance of 1.2921 for the fourth time, which led to its breakdown and the growth of the pound in the first half of the day. Now the task of sellers is to regain control over this level, since only after this can we expect a larger drop in GBP/USD. This can be done only if data on the volume of retail trade in the United States will come out much better than economists' forecasts. A test of this level on the reverse side forms a good entry point for short positions that aim at a minimum of 1.2843, where I recommend fixing the profits. In the scenario of further growth of GBP/USD, the bears will need quite a bit of effort to protect the resistance of 1.2991. Only the formation of a false breakout on it will be a signal to sell the pound. I recommend opening short positions immediately for a rebound only after testing the maximum of 1.3103, based on a correction of 30-40 points within the day.
