16:15 BST - Cautious trade around congestion support at 1.3850 has given way to a sharp break higher in both USD- and CAD-driven trade, with prices approaching congestion resistance at 1.3900. Daily stochastics and the daily Tension Indicator continue to rise, highlighting room for a test above here. But negative weekly charts should limit initial scope in renewed selling interest/consolidation beneath further congestion around 1.3950.
Meanwhile, a close below 1.3850 will turn sentiment neutral and give way to consolidation above further congestion around 1.3800.
