09:10 GMT - Little change, as prices extend cautious trade within strong resistance at congestion around 100.00 and the 100.26 monthly high of 1 August. Intraday studies are under pressure, highlighting room for a break back below 100.00. But rising daily stochastics and the positive daily Tension Indicator should limit scope in renewed consolidation/buying interest above support at the 99.50 break level. Following cautious trade, fresh gains are looked for. A break above 100.00/26 will improve sentiment and extend mid-September gains towards the 100.65 Fibonacci retracement, where mixed weekly charts could prompt fresh selling interest/consolidation.
