14:00 BST - The fall from resistance at 148.00 has reached 146.75, where short-term consolidation is developing. Intraday studies are negative and daily readings continue to fall, highlighting a deterioration in sentiment and room for still deeper losses in the coming sessions. Focus is on support at 146.00, but a tick lower in overbought weekly stochastics suggests increased risk of continuation beneath here towards 145.00. Meanwhile, resistance is lowered to congestion around 147.00. But a close above 148.00 would turn sentiment neutral and prompt consolidation beneath critical resistance at the 149.35 Fibonacci retracement.
