Czemu stable

EUR i GBP to oba europejskie waluty z:

• Strong trade ties: ~50% UK exports do EU, ~15% EU imports z UK
• Correlated economic cycles: similar growth patterns
• Similar inflation profiles: oba 2% targets
• Geographic proximity: synchronized monetary policy reactions

Konsekwencja: EUR/GBP cross stays w narrow range. Razem rośnie albo razem spada vs USD/JPY, ale względem siebie stable.

Top 3 drivers

1. ECB vs BoE policy divergence: rate decisions impact 50+ pips. ECB hawkish + BoE dovish = EUR/GBP up.
2. UK-EU trade news: deals, disputes, Brexit-related. Post-Brexit Northern Ireland Protocol issues moved 100-200 pips.
3. UK economic data: CPI, GDP, retail sales — bigger UK reaction (smaller economy). EU CPI also matters but less volatile.

Brexit case study

EUR/GBP zazwyczaj stable, ale geopolitical shocks tworzą multi-year trends. Position traders capture huge moves. Day-traders avoid w high-news periods.
