A break below 1.5489 will give way to 1.5469, 1.5457. a break below the bottom of the Mf sloping channel will indicate an increase in the wave level of the current bearish move.
 
Alternatively, the bearish wave will be completed as soon as the price overcomes the top of the MF sloping channel and consolidates above the MF pivot at 1.5677.
