12:30 GMT - The anticipated break higher has not been seen, as consolidation around congestion resistance at 81.0000 gives way to a sharp pullback. Prices have reached support at 79.0000, where short-term consolidation is appearing. Daily readings are turning down, highlighting room for still deeper losses. But rising weekly charts are expected to limit any break beneath here in renewed consolidation above congestion support at 77.5000. Meanwhile, a close back above congestion resistance at 80.0000 should be limited in consolidation beneath 81.0000.
