If this happens, the next target is 0.65-0.7 price zone. However, if price breaks above 0.863 slightly, the wave count is still valid. A break above 0.9365 would mean that the bullish run has resumed otherwise, a dip below 0.7 is much likely to complete a 3-wave bearish correction.

Wave (b) took a new high at 0.9136 before dropping slightly below 0.8085. Price has slightly resumed upside but the bearish view is still intact. Price will have to break above wave (b) high to resume the bullish commitment. The chart below shows what we have now.
