On May 11 2022 I posted on social media  “ EURJPY If price makes a bounce higher towards the 137.60-137.80 area will take a SELL against 138.10 Stop Loss.“

Confluence trading is a combination of two or more trading strategies/techniques that come together and form a high probability buy/sell zone in a certain area in the market. Market patterns (Elliott Waves, Harmonic, Head and Shoulders etc.), price action analysis (Support & Resistance, Supply & Demand Zones, Candlestick analysis etc.) and indicators (RSI, Moving Average, Stochastic etc.) are technical strategies/techniques used when trading a  confluence setup. The charts below show a confluence trade setup that signals a trader on which side to take the trade.

SELL Trade Setup

1. Bearish Harmonic pattern triggered SELLS  at the BC 0.50% Fib. retracement level (Blue)

2. Price respects the top of the downward channel signaling more downside (Black)

3. Bearish Evening Doji Star reversal candlestick pattern forms (Light Blue)

4. RSI indicator and price form a bearish trend continuation divergence (Green)

5. All patterns form at the proposed 137.60-137.80 SELL ZONE (Pink Box)
