08:30 GMT - The test of resistance at the 1.0436 weekly high of 6 January is giving way to the anticipated pullback, as overbought intraday studies unwind, with prices once again trading below congestion around 1.0400. A test below support at 1.0350 cannot be ruled out. But rising daily readings and a tick higher in oversold weekly stochastics highlight potential for renewed buying interest/consolidation towards congestion around 1.0300. Following cautious trade, higher levels are looked for. A break back above 1.0400 will improve sentiment. But a further close above the 1.0458 weekly high of 30 December is needed to turn sentiment positive and confirm a more sustainable rally.
