10:10 BST - Cautious trade beneath 163.20 has given way to a sharp break lower to 161.00, where oversold intraday studies are prompting a bounce to 161.50. Daily readings have turned down and rising weekly stochastics are flattening in overbought areas, suggesting room for still deeper losses in the coming sessions. A break below 161.00 will open up congestion around 160.00. But the positive weekly Tension Indicator is expected to limit any initial tests in fresh consolidation. Meanwhile, a close back above congestion resistance at 162.00, if seen, will help to stabilise price action and prompt consolidation beneath 163.20.
