The news about Theresa May's departure has been discussed all week and therefore has not made a significant impact on the markets. The upward correction on the pound, which had been asking for a long time, now depends on the resistance of 1.2744. Its breakthrough will lead GBP / USD to the new highs of 1.2800 and 1.2858, where I recommend taking profits. With a downward correction in the first half of the day, support will be provided in the area of 1.2696, from where long positions can be opened under the condition of a false breakdown, or by a rebound from the minimum of 1.2648.

To open short positions on GBP / USD you need:

Today, in the UK, marks the Spring Break, so volatility can be quite low. The formation of a false breakdown and a return under resistance 1.2744 will be the first signal to sell the British pound for the purpose of the 1.2696 minimum test, where I recommend taking profits. Only a fixation below this range will increase the pressure on the pair and will lead to the support of 1.2648, from where large buyers will return to the market. If the growth scenario is higher than 1.2744, you can take a closer look at short positions on the rebound from the maximum of 1.2800.
