16:50 BST - Cautious trade around 1.3750 is giving way to a drift higher in both USD- and CAD-driven trade, with prices currently balanced around 1.3785. Rising intraday studies and a tick higher in daily stochastics highlight potential for a test. But a tick lower in the daily Tension Indicator could limit any initial tests in consolidation, before rising weekly charts prompt a break and open up strong resistance at the 1.3860 weekly high of 29 May. Meanwhile, support remains at congestion around 1.3700 and should underpin any immediate setbacks.
