Is this too simple?
A - B - C.
B retraces 61.8% of A, then the C wave fades at the 161.8% extension of the A.

We could get only slightly more complicated with this chart.
Projecting the length of the A wave from the bottom of B, the fade is around the 127.2% mark.
And it leaves us open for a surprise move to 1.4160 and a new fade there.


Exhausted yet, euro sellers?
An impulsive pattern where there was some support at the 4.236 extension.late Thursday, before Friday's continuation of the down move. The next exponent of phi would be 6.854 (1.618 to the 4th power). Right about where we are now.
Quick update on the EURUSD charts posted on Monday. Target was 1.4950 as the 4.236 Fibonacci extension. 1.4939 printed today. Close enough.

Similar pattern to the EURUSD shown yesterday, with the difference that in this case, the pattern seems completed.
