11:55 GMT - Little change, as prices extend choppy trade beneath congestion resistance at 17.0000. Daily readings are turning down, highlighting room for a break back below congestion support at 16.8000. But rising weekly charts should limit scope in renewed buying interest/consolidation above the 16.5000 - 16.6000 range. Following cautious/corrective trade, fresh gains are looked for. However, a close above 17.0000 is needed to improve sentiment and extend late-January gains towards the 17.2750 Fibonacci retracement.
