00:50 GMT - No follow-through on break above the 158.00 level and channel resistance from July current year high. Break here, if seen, will open up room for retest of the 200-day MA at 158.50 and possibly the 158.95/159.00, October and 24 September highs. However, corrective gains are expected to give way to renewed selling pressure later with support starting at the 157.50/00 area. Break here will return focus to the downside for retest of the 156.07 low and threatens follow-through to retest strong support at the 155.00, May low.
