08:40 BST - The recent break above 0.8650 has met selling interest at 0.8667, with prices currently pressuring congestion support at 0.8650 in cautious trade. Intraday studies have turned down, highlighting room for a test beneath here. Focus will then turn to support at 0.8600/20, where rising daily readings are expected to prompt fresh reactions. However, broader weekly charts are bearish, pointing to room for a later break and confirmation a near-term top in place at the 0.8752 current year high of 28 July.
