The Aussie finished the easy part of the recovery, now comes the hard part

The AUD/USD enjoyed a better mood and upbeat Australian data to recover, but may now face substantial technical barriers.

The  Technical Confluences Indicator  shows that the pair has a battleground around  0.7408  which is the convergence of the Fibonacci 23.6% one-month and the Simple Moving Average 5-15m.

Not too far above,  0.7426  is the confluence of the potent Simple Moving Average 100-4h, the 4h high, the Bolinger Band 1h-Upper, and the Pivot Point one-day Resistance one.

On the downside, significant support awaits at  0.7393  with the Simple Moving Average 100-15m, the SMA 5-4h, and the Bolinger Band 1h-Middle Stdv. 2.2. More substantial support awaits at  0.7385  which is the congestion of the SMA 200-1h, the SMA 50-4h, the Fibonacci 23.6% one-day, and the SMA 10-one-day.

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. 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.
