14:30 GMT - Cautious trade is giving way to a push higher, as intraday studies improve, with the break above 16.0000 putting focus on congestion around 16.2000. Daily readings have ticked higher, suggesting room for a test above here. But mixed weekly charts are expected to limit initial scope in fresh consolidation beneath 16.5000. Meanwhile, support is raised to congestion around 16.0000. However, any initial tests beneath here should give way to consolidation above the 15.0835 weekly low of 12 February.
