The pound remains stable on Monday, with traders seemingly ignoring news of a possible end to the federal government shutdown in the US for now.

The Pound was also little changed towards the end of last week, despite the Bank of England keeping interest rates unchanged. That said, the balance of votes reflected a lack of unity, with five committee members voting to keep the rate on hold and four voting for a cut. This week's economic data will be of particular importance.

Traders are also paying attention to the UK budget expected at the end of November.
