06:00 GMT - Consolidation below the .7278 current year high of 6 May has given way to break of a rising wedge and the .7200 support as daily studies unwind overbought readings. Pullback opens up room to strong support at .7135/.7100 congestion and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement. Below this will see scope for deeper pullback to .7055/.7100 Fibonacci levels. Meanwhile, resistance is lowered to the .7200 level which is expected to cap corrective bounce. Clearance will return focus to the upside for retest of .7278/80 current year high and see room to extend gains from April 2025 year low.
