13:20 BST - Little change, as prices extend cautious trade following the spike above congestion resistance at 16.8000. Intraday studies are negative and overbought daily stochastics are unwinding, highlight room for a pullback. But the rising daily Tension Indicator and improving weekly charts should limit scope in renewed buying interest within the 16.5000 - 16.6000 range. Meanwhile, a close above 16.8000 would help to improve sentiment and extend mid-April gains towards further congestion around 17.0000.
