Commentary: Yesterday we wrote that “a top for wave A might be in place at 1.9949.  Wave 5 of A appears to take the form of a diagonal (overlapping waves) and diagonals are usually fully retraced.  In this case, the origin of the diagonal is close to the 38.2% of 1.9337-1.9949 at 1.9715.  The next move is towards this level -- we will look to buy this dip.”  Look for the decline to accelerate in the next few days.  
      
Strategy:  Bearish, against 1.9960, target 1.9600
