27.09.201907:21 Forex Analysis & Reviews: GBP/USD: plan for the European session on September 27. The pound will remain under pressure as long as confrontation within the UK Parliament continues

To open long positions on GBP/USD you need:

Yesterday, in the afternoon, the bulls made an unsuccessful attempt to break through and consolidate above the resistance of 1.2531, after which the trade again moved to this level. Therefore, nothing has changed from a technical point of view. The bulls' return and consolidation above the resistance of 1.2351 remains the same task, since only after this we can count on a larger upward correction to the area of a high of 1.2400, where I recommend taking profit. In case the pound declines in the morning further along the trend, it is best to consider new long positions for a rebound from major support in the region of 1.2284, or after updating the low of 1.2238.

To open short positions on GBP/USD you need:

The task is still the same for sellers of the pound. The formation of a false breakdown in the resistance area of 1.2351 will lead to the formation of additional pressure on the pair and to a repeated wave of decline in the area of the low of 1.2284, where I recommend taking profit. If the pressure on the pound is larger, after a speech by representatives of the Bank of England, you can count on the renewal of 1.2238 area. If the pressure on the pair weakens in the first half of the day, and the bulls manage to regain the resistance of 1.2351, it is best to count on short positions on a false breakdown from a high of 1.2400, or sell GBP/USD for a rebound from the level of 1.2440.
