02:50 GMT - Sharply higher to retrace the December losses above resistance at the 1465.00/1470.00 congestion area. Break here opens up room to 1475.00 but potential is seen for retest of the 1480.00/1484.00, November/December highs. Clearance here, will see room to retest resistance at 1487.00, the 2024 and 2025 year highs and where reaction is expected. Meanwhile, support is raised to the 1460.00 congestion which shoudl now underpin. Would take break here to ease the upside pressure and see room for deeper pullback to support at the 1440.00 congestion and 1430.00 low.
