12:25 BST - Cautious trade within resistance at 16.5000 - 16.6000 is giving way to a pullback, as intraday studies turn down, with prices currently trading just beneath 16.5000.Focus is on congestion around 16.4000. But rising daily readings should limit any initial tests in renewed consolidation. A break, however, will add weight to sentiment and open up critical support at the 16.2520 Fibonacci retracement. But mixed weekly charts should prompt consolidation above here. Meanwhile, a close above 16.6000 would help to improve price action and open up a test of congestion around 16.8000.
