08:35 BST - The anticipated test of 1.1600 has given way to a break, with steady buying interest currently trading around 1.1685. Rising daily readings highlight room for a test of congestion around 1.1700. But negative weekly charts should limit any break in renewed selling interest/consolidation beneath 1.1750. Critical resistance is at the 1.1830 current year high of 1 July. A close above here would turn sentiment positive and confirm continuation of September 2022 gains. Meanwhile, support is raised to congestion around 1.1600. A close beneath here would turn sentiment neutral and prompt consolidation above further congestion around 1.1500.
