EUR/JPY - Euro bulls remained confined to a narrow trading range, as it kept the cross bound to the 136.00 handle. As the price action resumes and Japanese yen longs finally make a move, a break below the triangle's lower boundary will most likely see the euro bulls tumble toward 134.44, a level marked by the 38.2 Fib of the 140.51-130.68 JPY rally. A further collapse of the single currency defenses will most likely see the EUR/JPY head straight for the 133.00 figure, marked by the 23.6 Fib of the 140.51-130.68 JPY rally thus breaking the 133.53, an August 22 daily spike low. A sustained momentum on the part of the Japanese yen longs will most likely see the euro bulls continue to retreat toward the psychologically important 130.00 handle. Indicators are mixed with momentum indicator treading above zero line, while MACD is sloping upward toward the zero line. Oscillators continue to tread in a neutral territory thus giving either side enough room to maneuver, while volatility fell as range began to shrink.
