21.06.201909:21 Forex Analysis & Reviews: GBP/USD: plan for the European session on June 21. Demand for the pound will return after a slight downward correction

To open long positions on GBP/USD you need:

Buyers of the pound are optimistic and continue to open long positions. The best scenario for buying will be when a false breakdown is formed in the first half of the day in the support area of 1.2690, which will lead to the preservation of the upward impulse and a retest of the level of 1.2723, consolidating above which will open the prospect of good movement to the highs of 1.2762 and 1.2786, where I recommend to take profit. With the GBP/USD decline scenario, long positions can be returned to the rebound from the support of 1.2648.

To open short positions on GBP/USD you need:

Sellers of the pound can only expect a decline below 1.2690, which will lead to a larger downward correction to the area of a 1.2648 low, where I recommend taking profits. If demand for GBP/USD remains in the first half of the day, as well as movement along the trend, it is best to consider short positions after updating major resistances of 1.2762 and 1.2786.
