12:30 BST - Choppy trade around the 75.0500 multi-month Fibonacci retracement is giving way to a test lower, with prices currently pressuring critical support within the 74.0250 - 74.4050 range. Daily readings are mixed/negative and broader weekly charts are bearish, highlighting room for fresh losses in the coming sessions. However, a close below the 74.0250 year low of 10 July 2025 is needed to turn sentiment negative and extend November 2024 losses into 3-year lows. Meanwhile, resistance remains up to congestion around 76.0000 and should cap any immediate tests higher.
