12:00 GMT - Little change, as prices extend pressure on support at the 17.5000 break level. Daily readings continue to fall and rising weekly stochastics are showing signs of flattening, highlighting a deterioration in sentiment and room for further losses in the coming sessions. A break beneath 17.5000 will open up 17.3500, where the positive weekly Tension Indicator should prompt renewed buying interest. Meanwhile, a close back above 17.6000 will turn sentiment neutral. But a further close above the 17.8600 Fibonacci retracement is needed to turn sentiment positive and extend September gains towards resistance within the 18.0000 - 18.0550 area.
