EUR/USD has a well-defined range in low ground — Confluence Detector

The Technical Confluences Indicator shows that the EUR/USD has clear clusters of support and resistance limiting its movements. On the topside, a dense congestion area awaits at $1.2160 which is the meeting point of the Bolinger Band one-hour-Upper, the Pivot Point one-day R1, the Pivot Point one-month S1, the Fibonacci 28.2% one-week, and the Simple Moving Average one-hour. 

On the downside, support awaits at $1.2095. This is the confluence of the SMA100-15m, the SMA10-4h, the Fibo 23.6% one-week, and the Fibonacci 38.2% one day. 

Beyond this range, a break higher would open the door to resistance at $1.2278 which is the convergence of the Fibonacci 61.8% one-month, the Bolinger Band one-day Middle, and the SMA100-4h. 

On the downside, substantial support is at $1.1995, where we see the Fibonacci 161.8% one-day, the SMA 200-one day and the Pivot Point one-day S3 meet. 

Here is how it looks on the tool:

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. This means 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.
