The British pound<\/a> fell against the Norwegian krone<\/a> and other major currencies after Prime Minister Johnson moved to block any further Brexit delay beyond the end of 2020, increasing the chances of a no-deal divorce.<\/p>\n

Johnson wants to deliver Brexit<\/a> and ratify a new trade deal with the European Union \u2014 similar to the one between Canada and the EU – before the bridging period ends on December 31, 2020.<\/p>\n

However, EU leaders have warned that it\u2019s unlikely that the UK and the bloc will be able to finish a trade deal in 11 months. It took seven years to finish the trade deal between the EU and Canada.<\/p>\n

The pound opened with a gap to the downside against the krone following the news but managed to pick up some support again after reaching an intraday low of 11.95. As of 7:05 a.m. London time, one pound bought 11.9650 krones.<\/p>\n

Sterling had climbed to as high as 12.21 against the Norwegian krone on Friday after Johnson\u2019s Conservative Party won a decisive majority in the UK election, fueling hopes that uncertainties around Brexit would soon be over.<\/p>\n

According to the latest Commitment of Traders report that tracks changes in positions in the futures market through last Tuesday, investors reduced their bearish bets by $579 million to take the total short positioning to $1.87 billion \u2014 the smallest level since May.<\/p>\n

While there are no market reports of note from Norway today, the UK will release the Average Earnings Index for October at 9:30 a.m. London time, with a market forecast of 3.4%. Later today, BoE Governor Carney is due to deliver a speech at the ECB Farewell Board Dinner in Frankfurt.<\/p>\n

From a technical standpoint, the pair is trading in a well-defined upwards channel and could try to close the gap with a jump to 12.01 in today\u2019s trade. The pair looks well supported above the 11.90 level.<\/p>\n
