The EUR/USD is locked in a narrow range for now

The  Technical Confluences Indicator  shows that the EUR/USD has clear clusters of support and resistance limiting its movements. On the topside, a dense congestion area awaits at $1.2160  which is the meeting point of the Bolinger Band one-hour-Upper, the Pivot Point one-day R1, the Pivot Point one-month S1, the Fibonacci 28.2% one-week, and the Simple Moving Average one-hour.

On the downside, support awaits at $1.2095. This is the confluence of the SMA100-15m, the SMA10-4h, the Fibo 23.6% one-week, and the Fibonacci 38.2% one day.

Beyond this range, a break higher would open the door to resistance at $1.2278  which is the convergence of the Fibonacci  61.8% one-month, the Bolinger Band one-day Middle, and the SMA100-4h.

On the downside, substantial support is at $1.1995, where we see the Fibonacci 161.8% one-day, the SMA 200-one day and the Pivot Point one-day S3 meet.

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.
