16:30 BST - Cautious trade has given way to anticipated losses, with the break below 19.5000 adding weight to sentiment and prompting a test of support at the 19.3700 Fibonacci retracement. Oversold daily stochastics are flat, suggesting potential for consolidation around here. But the daily Tension Indicator is turning down and longer-term charts are under pressure, pointing to room for deeper losses in the coming sessions. A close below 19.3700 will add weight to sentiment and extend February losses initially towards congestion around 19.2000. Meanwihle, a close back above congestion resistance at 19.5000, if seen, will help to stabilise price action and give way to consolidation beneath 19.7500.
