All of you know all kind of divergence but i want let me to
post a short introduce about types of divergence.

""you can find more and complete post about type of divergence and divegence trading on www.babypips.com website ""

There are TWO types of divergence:

 

  1. Regular divergence (RD)
  2. Hidden divergence (HD)



Regular Divergence

A regular divergence is used as a possible sign for
a trend reversal.If the price is making lower
lows (LL), but the oscillator is making higher lows (HL),
this is considered regular bullish divergence.

If the price is making a higher high (HH), but the oscillator is
lower high (LH), then you have regular bearish divergence.

Hidden Divergence

A hidden divergence is used as a possible sign for a
trend continuation. If price is making a higher low (HL),
but the oscillator is making a lower low (LL), this is
considered hidden bullish divergence.

If price is making a lower high (LH), but the oscillator is making
a higher high (HH), then you have hidden bearish divergence.

Oscillators that I use for divergence tradingae are MACD and Awesome oscillator
Hey I am using divergence with MACD, do you have an indicator for MT4 that points it out automatically? I downloaded this weekend the FX_MACD_Divergence, and i am playing with it

Dr. Alex Elder calls macd divergence the '..strongest signal in technical analysis.' My own trading system/methodology includes oscilllator divergence/extrems as part of a confluence of tech reasons to enter the market.

My experience is that there are dertain high probability patterns of bullish and bearish divergence and these are;

i.Regular Divergence - which can indicate a reversal/pullback in immediate prevailing price action.
ii.Hidden (sometimes called Reverse) Divergence - which can indicate a continuation in a trend following a pullback (the starting point of the pullback possibly indicated by Regular divergence/Extreme oscillator readings.)

These can be further sub-divided as:

a. Regular immediate [separate oscillator peak/valley] Divergence
b. Regular immediate [within same oscillator peak/valley] Divergence
c. Regular sequential Divergence [ie the overall sequence of oscillator peaks/valleys exhibits divergence)
d. Hidden (Reverse) Divergence

and of course;

e. Oscillator Extreme readings.

Yes I use it for all pairs and timeframes. I just downloaded the indicator this past weekend so I am still testing it. The settings are numbers for the fibonacci sequence. I took a seminar and they were using that setting. Which one do you use?
No offense intended, and I guess you're starting an interesting discussion on good will, but credit must be due to the introduction part..... it's from babypips.com

jacobofx can you check Gbpusd
with these indicators that you use , we dont have any signal know
however we have a good (in my opinion) HD signals for Gbpusd now
Attachment I also got a HD on gbpusd 1 hr. So i am going to go to 15 min and try to trap price and see if I have a breakout to the upside. I am going to be careful, because we could have a lower high on the daily.
