08:10 BST - Anticipated losses have bounced from 1.3415~, as oversold intraday studies unwind, with prices currently balanced back at congestion resistance around 1.3500. Negative daily readings are flattening, suggesting a minor improvement in sentiment and room for a test above 1.3500 towards 1.3550. But mixed/negative weekly charts should limit any extension beyond here in renewed selling interest towards strong resistance at 1.3490/00. Meanwhile, support remains down to congestion around 1.3400. A close beneath here would add weight to sentiment and open up further congestion around 1.3300.
