12:30 GMT - The anticipated break above congestion resistance at 17.5000 has been pushed back from the 17.5625 Fibonacci retracement, as overbought daily stochastics flatten, with focus turning to congestion support at 17.4000. A break beneath here cannot be ruled out. But the rising daily Tension Indicator and positive weekly charts should limit scope in renewed buying interest/consolidation above further congestion around 17.2000. Following cautious trade, fresh gains are looked for. But a close above 17.5625 is needed to turn sentiment positive and extend October gains towards 17.8000.
