08:50 BST - Little change, as prices extend cautious trade above congestion support at 99.50. Intraday studies are coming under pressure, highlighting room for a test beneath here. But rising daily readings should limit scope in renewed buying interest/consolidation above further congestion around 99.00.
Following cautious trade, fresh gains are looked for. A break above the 99.86 weekly high of 2 September will open up congestion around 100.00 and the 100.20 Fibonacci retracement. But mixed/negative weekly charts should limit any further gains above here, if seen, in renewed profit-taking towards the 100.60 retracement.
