13:05 BST - Cautious trade is giving way to a test higher, as oversold intraday studies unwind, with prices currently pressuring congestion resistance at 16.2500. A test above here cannot be ruled out. But negative daily readings and bearish weekly charts should limit scope in renewed selling interest beneath further congestion around 16.4000. Following cautious/corrective trade, fresh losses are looked for. A later close below the 16.1400 monthly low of 17 April will add weight to sentiment and extend late-March losses towards the 16.0170 retracement.
