The Non Farm Payroll (NFP) and unemployment rate in the US were released on Friday. The news and data cause US Dollar strength which has sent the EUR/USD downwards. The bearish reaction could indicate the end of wave 3 (green) and start of wave 4 (green).

1 hour

The EUR/USD could be building an ABC (purple) correction within wave 4 (green). The bearish breakout below support (dotted green) seems to be a wave 3 (brown) which means that the current bullish price action could be a wave 4 (brown) retracement. The wave 4 is invalidated if price breaks above the 61.8% Fib.
