13:00 BST - Anticipated losses have posted a fresh year low around 70.0350, before bouncing smartly into consolidation around 71.2000. However, daily readings remain under pressure and broader weekly charts are also falling, highlighting room for still further losses in the coming sessions. A break beneath here will add weight to already bearish sentiment and extend November 2024 losses still further. Initial focus will turn to the 69.0200 low of February 2023, with room for still deeper losses. Meanwhile, resistance remains at 73.0000. A close above here, if seen, would help to stabilise sentiment and prompt consolidation beneath 74.7500.
