To open long positions on the GBP / USD pair, you need:
Pound buyers, for stopping a downtrend, need to form a false breakdown in the support area of 1.2943 with confirmation of divergence on the MACD indicator. Only after that, it will be possible to count on a repeated upward correction in the area of resistance 1.2990, as well as on updating the maximum of 1.3037, where I recommend taking profits. In the case of a further decline in the GBP/USD pair, it is best to look at long positions for a rebound from a low of 1.2905.
To open short positions on the GBP / USD pair, you need:
A weak report on the UK labor market may maintain pressure on the pound in the first half of the day and the formation of a false breakdown in the area of resistance at 1.2990 will be an additional signal to open short positions. The sellers will target the lows of 1.2905 and 1.2866, where I recommend taking profits. However, it is important to be careful in selling the pair for the breakdown of support at 1.2943, which eliminates the divergence that can be formed on the MACD indicator. In the case of the growth of the pound on the data above the resistance of 1.2990, you can sell for a rebound from the maximum of 1.3037.
