08:10 BST - Consolidation around 1.3435 has given way to a drift lower, as intraday studies turn down, with prices currently pressuring congestion support at 1.3400. A break will open up support at 1.3350. But rising daily readings should limit any initial tests in fresh consolidation, before deteriorating weekly charts add weight to sentiment and open up a test of congestion support at 1.3300. Meanwhile, resistance remains at 1.3450. Any tests above here should be limited in renewed selling interest towards congestion around 1.3500.
