08:55 BST - Sharp losses have bounced from just above congestion support at 98.50, with prices currently balanced in cautious trade above 99.00. Rising intraday studies highlight room for a test above the 99.18 high of 8 April. But negative daily readings and unwinding overbought weekly stochastics should limit scope in renewed selling interest towards congestion resistance at 99.50. Following cautious trade, fresh losses are looked for. However, a close below the 98.70 Fibonacci retracement is needed to add weight to sentiment and extend late-March losses below 98.50 towards 98.00/10.
