Since then, there has been a one way traffic only, albeit with pauses, as these trends usually unfold. On Tuesday, we saw the first wave of the pattern stretching from 111.10 to 111.90, but in the afternoon the price retraced lower until the buyers regrouped.

Then, the next upward wave of this pattern began yesterday morning. So, EUR/USD pushed higher the entire day, but today we saw another pullback lower, which was the fourth wave; 2 larger waves up and 2 retracement waves.
