14:15 BST - Prices continue to track lower in JPY-driven trade, with the break below 164.00 opening up support at 163.20. Daily readings are turning down and overbought weekly stochastics are flattening, suggesting a deterioration in sentiment and room for further losses. A break beneath here will target congestion around 162.00, where short-covering/consolidation is expected to appear. Meanwhile, a close back above 164.00, if seen, will help to stabilise price action and prompt consolidation beneath 165.00.
