To open long positions on GBP/USD, you need:

Despite the fact that the buyers of the pound missed the support level of 1.2682, while trading is above the minimum of 1.2653, it would be wrong to talk about the continuation of the downward trend. The main task of the bulls for the second half of the day is to return to the resistance of 1.2682, which will lead to an update of the highs in the area of 1.2720 and 1.2756, where I recommend taking the profit. With a further decline in GBP/USD, buyers will try to form a false breakout at a minimum of 1.2653. In another scenario, it is best to open long positions on the rebound from the minimum of 1.2617.

To open short positions on GBP/USD, you need:

Sellers of the pound will try to keep the pair below the resistance of 1.2682, and an unsuccessful consolidation at this level in the second half of the day will be a signal to open short positions in order to reduce to the low of 1.2653 with the update of the area of 1.2617, which will indicate the formation of a new downward trend in the market. In the case of growth above 1.2682 in the second half of the day, it is best to look at short positions on the rebound from the maximum of 1.2720 or from a larger resistance of 1.276.
