cable managed to close 155 pips higher. The pair surged around the London fix as

procedure for lawmakers to vote against a disruptive 'no deal' Brexit with the
potential for a sequence of votes from March 12. Also on the Brexit front, MPs
from the Independent Group have tabled an amendment to the Brexit voting
procedure requesting a second referendum.
- Tuesday also saw BoE Gov Carney appear before the Tsy Committee. Carney noted
that the MPC could move policy either way post-Brexit. Carney also warned
against potential consequences of a no-deal Brexit and pledged the BoE's
commitment to support the wider economy.
- Bulls look to Tuesday's YTD high of $1.3288, followed by the Sep 20 high of
$1.3298. Meanwhile, bears need a break below the upper Bollinger band (2%) at
$1.3220 before challenging $1.3203, which represents the 100-WMA.
