09:30 BST - Anticipated gains have reached resistance at the 0.8065 weekly high of 17 July, where flat overbought intraday studies are prompting short-term reactions. Daily readings continue to track higher and broader weekly charts are rising, highlighting an improvement in sentiment and room for further gains in the coming sessions. A close above 0.8065 confirm a near-term low in place around 0.7870/00 and extend July gains initially to strength resistance at 0.8100. Beyond here is the 0.8170 Fibonacci retracement. Meanwhile, support is raised to congestion around 0.8000. A close beneath here, if seen, will turn sentiment neutral and prompt consolidation above further congestion around 0.7900.
