GBP/USD: plan for the European session on June 4. The pound is approaching an important resistance of 1.2697

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

Yesterday, buyers of the pound held above the important support level of 1.2623, which bears tried to break through throughout the day. This allowed us to keep the upward correction, which is now aimed at the resistance of 1.2697, a breakthrough above will provide GBP/USD return to a maximum of 1.2744, where I recommend fixing the profit. In the scenario of a pound decline in the first half of the day, only the formation of a false breakout in the support area of 1.2656 will allow buyers to return to the market. In another scenario, it is best to open long positions on the rebound from the minimum of 1.2611.

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

Sellers of the pound will count on the formation of a false breakout in the resistance area of 1.2697, which will be the first signal to open short positions in order to reduce to the support of 1.2656. However, the main task of the bears is to consolidate under the level of 1.2656, which will lead to the demolition of a number of stop orders of buyers and a larger decrease in GBP/USD in the area of the minimum of 1.2611, where I recommend fixing the profits. In a growth scenario above 1.2697, the resistance range of 1.2744 will be an acceptable area for short positions.
