09:10 GMT - The test of support at the 97.80 Fibonacci retracement and congestion around 98.00 has bounced smartly, as oversold intraday studies unwind, with prices currently trading around congestion resistance at 98.50. A break above here will open up further congestion around 99.00. But mixed/negative daily readings and falling weekly charts are expected to limit any tests in renewed selling interest/consolidation. Following corrective trade, fresh losses are looked for. But a break below 97.80/00 is needed to turn sentiment negative and extend late-November losses towards congestion around 97.50.
