Next on tap for the cross will be UK’s Construction PMI, expected a tad higher at 55.5 during February, followed by speeches by MPCs Brodbent and Cunliffe.

EUR/GBP key levels

The European cross is now up 0.11% at 0.7796 and a breakout of 0.7931 (high Feb.25) would expose 0.7977 (high Dec.1 2014) and then 0.8007 (high Dec.16 2014). On the other hand, the next support lines up at 0.7692 (low Feb.16) ahead of 0.7596 (55-day sma) and finally 0.7523 (low Feb.3).
