EUR/USD range is clear to see

Yohay Elam

The  EUR/USD  traded lower before it got somewhat carried away by the Pound and its Brexit optimism. Will it go up or down? In any case, the battle lines are clear to see.

The  Technical Confluences Indicator  shows that the  1.1623  area is a pivotal point, a dense cluster of technical levels. These include the Fibonacci 23.6% one-day, the Fibonacci 23.6% one-week, the Simple Moving Average 5-one-day, and the Bolinger Band one-hour Middle.

Looking up, there are quite a few minor levels, but only at  1.1738, we see a critical resistance level. This is the convergence of last month’s high, last week’s high, and also the SMA 100-one-day.

On the downside, we also see quite a few technical indicators, but the crucial confluence is at  1.1550  which includes the Pivot Point one-week Support 1, the Bolinger Band one-day Middle, and the one-day low.

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.
