Confluence trading is a combination of one 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, Candlestick patterns etc.), price action (Support & Resistance, Supply & Demand Zones, Fibonacci retracements etc.) and indicators (RSI, Moving Average, Stochastic etc.) are technical analysis strategies used when trading a confluence setup.

A trader should always have multiple strategies all lined up before entering a trade. Never trade off 1 simple strategy. When multiple strategies all line up it allows a trader to see a clearer trade setup. If you followed me on social media @AidanFX you too could have caught the AUDUSD move higher and the USDCAD, EURAUD move lower. We at EWF never say we are always right. No market service provider can forecast markets with 100% accuracy. Only thing we at EWF 100%, is that we are RIGHT more than we are WRONG.
Of course, like any strategy/technique, there will be times when the strategy/technique fails so proper money/risk management should always be used on every trade. Hope you enjoyed this article and follow me on social media for updates and questions> @AidanFX
