• Due to the aftermath from the Jeffrey Epstein incident, Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar called on UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer to resign, posing a serious challenge to his leadership.

• The Bank of England kept interest rates on hold last week, but only after an unexpectedly narrow 5-4 vote, and said borrowing costs are likely to fall if inflation eases further.

• The release of December GDP and January retail sales figures this week could help indicate the likely course of monetary policy.

• Immediate resistance is located at 2.2665(Feb 10th high), any close above will push the pair towards 2.2749(38.2%fib).

• Immediate support is seen at 2.2556(23.6%fib) and break below could take the pair towards 2.2412(Lower BB).

Recommendation: Good to sell around 2.2580 with stop loss of 2.2650 and target price of 2.2500
