EUR/GBP moves off lows as BoE stays put

 

EUR/GBP managed to take back some losses over the last minutes, as the pound weakened across the board following BoE decision to stay on hold.

EUR/GBP bounced from a 10-day low of 0.8329 and it was last trading around 0.8360, still 0.25% lower on the day.
