What It Is
Confluence is the overlap of multiple technical factors at the same price level or area. When support, Fibonacci levels, moving averages, trendlines, and other tools all point to the same zone, the probability of that level holding increases significantly.
The principle: No single indicator is reliable on its own. But when multiple independent factors agree, they validate each other. Professional traders don't take setups with just one reason - they stack 3-5+ factors before committing capital.
Think of it like witness testimony in court: one witness can be wrong, but if five independent witnesses tell the same story, it's much more credible.

Three confluent factors at one level is better than one perfect setup. When a Fib level, horizontal support, and a trendline all meet at the same price, the odds shift dramatically in your favor.
