It is event. It could be opportunity for you or disaster. It depends how you handle it.

I, personally, intend to stop trading one day before it happens. I have no idea what kind volatility there'd be.

To be honest GBP/USD already seems untradeable. It's stuck in a relatively tight range without any clear direction.

I agree, that's the best approach. There are plenty of decent pairs to trade out there, one can avoid trading the GBP and EUR ones for a little while.

Exactly. When you start avoiding these pairs?

I've already started avoiding EUR/GBP and GBP/USD. I generally avoid EUR/USD by default. I'm actually mostly concentrating on NZD/USD at the moment.

I'm cutting out half my pairs (no new trades) - EUR/USD, GBP/USD and GBPCHF. I'm not sure if there will be a major impact on EUR though, if they exit, EUR is still a large chunk in the greater scheme of things. But definitely don't want to land in a CHF position like last time. Best to err on the side of caution. I might add NZD/USD, but already trading AUD/USD so it would tip the balance of my pairs by quite a bit, so may have to evaluate some cross pairs with the effect of a greater spread or ride out the weather with pairs I have (no additions) :-/
Storm in a teacup or tornado in a city? I'm not sure anyone really can predict an outcome.

For every loss there should be at least an equal and opposite profit.

I think they are aware that adjusting the leverage can be seen by some traders as a cautious move and by others as a bias toward the outcome, they won't make a rash decision. It wouldn't be in anyone's best interest either, winners from the outcome at a later stage may turn around and say they were cheated out of increased profit. They might decide to adjust leverage on request on a per account basis.
