01:00 GMT - Still pressing higher with bullish price action closing in on retest of the 162.84 high. Break here, if seen, will extend the underlying bull trend and see room for gains to the 163.00/164.00 congestion and high of December 1986. However, overbought daily and weekly studies caution corrective pullback with support starting at the 162.00/161.00 congestion area. Would take break here to expose the 160.48, 3 July low, to retest and threatens deeper pullback to retrace rally from the May low to the 160.00 figure and strong support at 159.50.
