08:05 GMT - Anticipated gains have reached strong resistance at 1.2900 and the 1.2920 Fibonacci retracement, where flat overbought intraday studies are prompting short-term reactions. Daily readings continue to track higher, highlighting room for a test above here. But flattening overbought weekly stochastics are expected to limit scope beyond 1.2900/20 in profit-taking towards 1.3000. Meanwhile, support remains at congestion around 1.2800. A close beneath here would turn sentiment neutral and prompt consolidation above further congestion around 1.2700.
