13:15 GMT - Anticipated selling interest has posted as fresh 2025 year low around 16.6100, before settling into fresh consolidation around the 16.6500 Fibonacci retracement. Negative daily studies are flattening, suggesting potential for further sideways trade. But broader weekly charts and longer-term readings are mixed/negative, highlighting room for still deeper losses in the coming sessions. A close below 16.6100 - 16.6500 will add weight to sentiment and extend April losses towards the 16.1060 low of August 2022. Meanwhile, resistance is lowered to the 16.8000 break level and extends to congestion around 17.0000. This range should cap any immediate tests higher.
