11:55 BST - Consolidation above congestion support at 17.5000 has given way to a fresh test higher, with prices once again trading within congestion resistance at 17.7000-17.8000. Daily readings have turned mixed, suggesting a cautious tone and room for fresh range trade within here. Negative weekly stochastics have turned higher, however, suggesting room for a later break higher. But the flat weekly Tension Indicator and mixed/negative longer-term charts should limit scope in fresh selling interest towards congestion around 18.0000. Meanwhile, support at 17.5000 should underpin any immediate setbacks.
