GBP/USD Trading Plan for October 31

Price stabilization below the level of 1.2150 could lead to a consecutive increase in short positions, which, in turn, could weaken the value of the British pound and lead to movement towards the level of 1.2050. As for the bullish scenario, it would require the quote to rise above the level of 1.2180. This price move could indicate a break of the resistance level and the potential for subsequent growth towards 1.2200/1.2250.
