At this moment there are 3 subwaves within this wave C - A-B-C colored red in the chart, and subwave C is still developing.

Overbought/Oversold
Assuming that the prevailing trend is going up it's preferable to use the Detrended Oscillator's oversold readings and in conjunction with Fib supports. Oversold area is 30 pips down which does not correspond to a Fib support, so stand aside in the meantime.
