11:50 BST - The anticipated pullback below 16.8000 has reached 16.7050, where short-term consolidation is developing. Negative intraday studies highlight room for further losses. But rising daily readings readings and improving weekly charts should limit scope in renewed buying interest/consolidation above support at 16.6000. Following cautious/corrective trade, fresh gains are looked for. A close above 16.8000 would help to improve sentiment and extend mid-April gains towards further congestion around 17.0000.
