The EUR/USD made a significant move to the upside and consolidated in the upper part of the 1.1700 handle. What's next?

The next target on the upside is 1,1825 were we see the confluence of the Pivot Point one-day Resistance 1, the PP one-week Resistance 2, and the BB one-hour Upper.

Confluence Detector

The Confluence Detector finds exciting opportunities using Technical Confluences. The TC is a tool to locate and point out those price levels where there is a congestion of indicators, moving averages, Fibonacci levels, Pivot Points, etc. Knowing where these congestion points are located is very useful for the trader, and can be used as a basis for different strategies.

This tool assigns a certain amount of “weight” to each indicator, and this “weight” can influence adjacents price levels. These weightings mean that one price level without any indicator or moving average but under the influence of two “strongly weighted” levels accumulate more resistance than their neighbors. In these cases, the tool signals resistance in apparently empty areas.
