14:05 BST - Little change, as cautious trade gives way to fresh multi-year highs around 162.80 in both USD- and JPY-driven trade. Mixed/positive daily readings and positive weekly charts highlight room for further strength in the coming sessions. Focus remains on historic congestion around 163.00. But already overbought daily and weekly stochastics should limit any immediate break, if seen, in profit-taking/consolidation towards the 163.95 high of December 1986. Meanwhile, support remains down to 161.50 and extends to 161.00. This range should underpin any immediate setbacks.
