Euro and yen battle to standstill
For the past eight trading days, the euro and yield have vied for the top of the currency heap.
The battle has carved out a minor wedge consolidation pattern on the daily chart. A break to the downside would signal another round of fears and a rally would indicate calm.
It's as good of a barometer as anything for what's coming next in markets.
