14:05 GMT - Little change, as prices extend USD- and JPY-driven gains towards congestion resistance at 158.00. Rising intraday studies and unwinding oversold daily stochastics highlight room for a test above here. However, the flat daily Tension Indicator suggests initial scope could be limited in consolidation/range extension beneath 159.00, before improving weekly charts prompt a further break.
Meanwhile, support remains at congestion around 157.00. A close beneath here, if seen, would help to stabilise price action and prompt consolidation above strong support at 155.95/00.
