06:45 GMT - Extending bounce from the 214.00 low of last week and break above 216.00 see prices extending strong gains within the bullish channel from the April 2025 year low. Higher will see room for extension to resistance at 217.60, January 2008 year high. Overbought daily and weekly studies caution corrective pullback with support raised to the 215.00/214.00 congestion area and 17 April low which should underpin. Would take break here to ease the upside pressure and see room for deeper pullback to retrace gains from 207.50 February current year low.
