12:35 GMT - Cautious trade has given way to fresh losses, with prices currently consolidating the anticipated test of congestion support at 77.5000. Daily readings are under pressure, highlighting room for a break beneath here. But rising weekly charts should limit scope in renewed buying interest towards the 76.5350 weekly low of 29 December. Meanwhile, resistance remains at 79.0000. A close above here, if seen, will help to stabilise price action and prompt consolidation beneath congestion around 80.0000.
