08:10 BST - Cautious trade has given way to a drift higher, with prices currently balanced around 1.3460. Daily readings have turned positive once again, suggesting room for a test of congestion resistance at 1.3560. But mixed weekly charts should limit any break in renewed selling interest beneath the 1.3558 monthly high of 15 July. A close above here, if seen, will extend late-June gains towards 1.3600, where mixed longer-term readings should prompt profit-taking. Meanwhile, support remains at congestion around 1.3400. A close beneath here would add weight to sentiment and put focus on further congestion around 1.3300.
