The British pound opened the week marginally higher across a range of
currencies, with GBP/USD up above 1.2762. Moving forward, the pound is
expected to witness steep volatility as the country's latest
employment/unemployment figures and inflation data will be released this
week and the Bank of England (BoE) Monetary Policy Committee meeting
will be held on Thursday.To get more news about

The most important event of the week will take place in the House of
Commons. On Monday, MPs began debating changes to the Withdrawal
Agreement as the amendments have riled the EU and caused heated debate
within the Conservative Party.
The UK's employment/unemployment figures for July will be released at
14:00 today, while at the same time tomorrow the CPI for August will
have come out. The data is expected to show price pressures easing, on
which the BoE is likely to discuss at their meeting the next day.
Bullish price action from the end of June was comprehensively broken
last week and there is little support before the 200-DMA. With
volatility picking-up over the last few weeks as well as the releases of
previously mentioned events and data, the pound may stage a volatile
performance this week.
