EUR/USD has downside targets after slipping from the highs

The EUR/USD enjoyed impressive gains but then stalled. Is it just a consolidation before another leg up? Not necessarily. The pair has a clear range.

The  Technical Confluences Indicator  shows that the EUR/USD is trading within a wide range between 1.1867 and 1.1732. On the upside, the  1.1867  is the convergence of the Fibonacci 61.8% one-month, the Fibonacci 161.8% one-week, the Pivot Point one-day Resistance 2, and the Bolinger Band 1h-Upper.

On the downside, strong resistance awaits at  1.1732  which is the confluence of the Fibonacci 161.8% one-day, the Fibonacci 38.2% one-month, and the Pivot Point one-day Support 2, all power lines.

In the middle of the range,  1.1806  is notable for the congestion of the Simple Moving Average 50-15m, the SMA 10-1h, the Bolinger Band 15m-Middle, the SMA 5-15m, the SMA 5-4h, the Bolinger Band 1h-Middle, the Bolinger Band 15m-Upper, and the SMA 100-15m.

On the upside,  1.1942  is notable as the Bolinger Band 1d-Upper. On the downside,  1.1702  may be a downside target as it is the meeting point of the Pivot Point one-day Support 3, the SMA 200-1h, and the SMA 50-4h.

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.
