The risk of a Labour government has receded following the MPs resignation. That's good for GBP.

With several Labour MPs soon to announce their resignation, I wonder if some Remain Conservatives MPS would follow suit. This would change the dynamics in the Parliament, with May losing control over the Brexit process.

A dip back into the 128s would be ideal but I'm entering first buy @129.05 and will add every 30 points drop below that. Stop 128.27

Guys...please do check level prices somewhere such as Bloomberg.i had unforgettable experience here that taught me a lesson. I do now check prices level to other sites. And if I thought something not right I make a fuss to my broker.

Somewhere in the world the market is open. That's why this site shows prices changing. Obviously there is no liquidity at this time as all brokers I know don't open til later. My broker is 9pm UK time your may vary.
