Strategy of the day on GBP/USD

The spot rate approaches the upper limit of its medium-term bearish channel at 1.5920 suggesting a decline. However, a break of these levels will initiate a violent bullish channel.
Technical indicators provide sell signals and until the resistance is not broken the assumption of a decline is most likely. Bollinger bands have stabilized showing a more regular volatility.
The spot rate approaches the upper limit of its channel, we suggest 2 scenarios. The first one is the hypothesis of a decline where we recommend a sell on the level of 1.5920 with the 1st objective at 1.5860 and then at 1.5840. A breakthrough of 1.5940 will invalidate this scenario. The second scenario is a break of its resistance where we advise a “buy stop” which means to buy the spot rate as soon as it is broken through its resistance of 1.5920 with the 1st objective at 1.5980 and then at 1.6000. A breakthrough of 1.5900 will invalidate this scenario.
