EUR/USD could tumble down if it loses critical support at 1.2155

The  Technical Confluences Indicator  shows that the EUR/USD is trading above a dense and potent cluster of support lines. If it falls over, it could turn into an avalanche. The $1.2155  line is the convergence of the Pivot Point one-week Support 2, the PP one-month S1, the Bolinger Band 1-hour Lower (Stdv. 2.2), the 1d-high and the 4h-high.

Should it fall, the next significant cushion is only at $1.2060. This is the meeting point of the Pivot Point one-day S3 and  the PP one-week S3

On the topside, the EUR/USD faces massive resistance. $1.2190  is the confluence of the BB one-day Lower, the Fibonacci 38.2% one-day, the Bolinger Band one-hour-Upper, the BB 15-Upper, and the Simple Moving Average 100-15m.

The road to the upside is packed with many substantial lines of resistance which would limit any upside move of the pair.

All in all, the EUR/USD is currently confined to a narrow range. Should have the momentum to make a move, a break to the downside would allow for more significant falls.

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.
