EUR/USD targets 1.1480 on the downside amid strong upside resistance

The  EUR/USD  is on the back foot once again, below 1.1600. Where next? The currency pair may find it hard to recover and further downside falls may be the way to go.

The  Technical Confluences Indicator  shows that the EUR/USD has weak support at  1.1565  where we see the Pivot Point one-day Support 1 and the one-day low.

More significant support awaits only at  1.1480  where we see the convergence of the Pivot Point one-month Support 3 and the Pivot Point one-day Support 3. This is the downside target for the world’s most popular currency pair.

Looking up,  1.1613  is the confluence of the 4h-high and the Simple Moving Average 50-one-day.

Robust resistance is at  1.1650  which is the congestion of the one-day high, the Simple Moving Average 100 one-day, the Pivot Point one-day Resistance 1, the Fibonacci 38.2% one-week.

All in all, the path of least resistance remains to the downside.

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.
