08:10 BST - Little change, as prices extend cautious trade above support at the 1.3233 weekly low of 23 April. Intraday studies have ticked higher and oversold daily stochastics are flattening, prompting a test above resistance at 1.3300. But the bearish daily Tension Indicator and mixed weekly charts are expected to limit scope in renewed consolidation beneath congestion resistance at 1.3400. Meanwhile, a close below 1.3233, if seen, will add weight to sentiment and confirm a near-term top in place around the 1.3435 year high of 26 September 2024, as the 1.3165 Fibonacci retracement then attracts.
