hello guys here is one of the most important lessons about training if you
[4]
want to become a successful trader or investor then you must learn how to spot
[9]
and trade a divergence like a pro divergences should be one of your most
[13]
important tools because they signal momentum coming into the main trend or
[18]
indicate a possible reversal when the trend is nearly over you don't even have
[23]
to learn all the concepts about trading if you master the divergences with basic
[28]
price action and support and resistance levels you can easily trade stocks Forex
[33]
or any other instruments you prefer so by the end of this video you'll learn
[38]
the power of divergences you'll learn how to spot them easily and you'll also
[43]
discover the best indicators you must use to trade divergences before we

your support so what is the divergence almost all technical indicators track
[65]
the evolution of price movement meaning that they like price that's why most of
[70]
the oscillators using technical analysis are lagging indicators when the price of
[75]
a stock moves upward the indicator also moves upward when the price moves
[81]
downward the indicator also moves downward but sometimes however a visual
[87]
discrepancy is seen between the price in the indicator this visual discrepancy is
[93]
known as a non confirmation and is called a divergence there are two types
[98]
of divergences regular divergences and hidden
[102]
divergences a regular divergence is characterized by higher high prices but
[108]
a lower indicator values during an uptrend and lower low prices followed by
[113]
higher indicator values during a downtrend irregular divergence is
[119]
considered a leading indicator because it can identify with good accuracy tops
[125]
and bottoms it also helps traders to sell near the top and why near the
[130]
bottom in words a classic divergence signals a
[134]
possible trend reversal irregular divergence has two patterns first is the
[141]
regular bearish divergence a regular bearish divergence appears during an
[147]
uptrend when the price is making higher highs but the indicator indicates a
[152]
lower high as you can observe in this chart the price was in a strong bullish
[158]
trend with a price pushing for new highs however the indicator failed to record
[164]
new highs on a contrary recording a lower high that's a strong indication of
[170]
market exhaustion and a possible sign of market reversal or at least a short-term
[176]
collection and second we have regular bullish divergence a regular bullish
[183]
divergence appears during a downtrend when the price is making lower lows but
[190]
the oscillator records higher loss again when we analyze this chart we see that a
[196]
price plunged quite aggressively with the price seeking for new lows this move
[202]
was not confirmed by the indicator which failed to record new lows on a contrary
[207]
recording higher loss thus the regular bullish divergence suggests a possible
[213]
market reversal for a short term collection besides regular divergences
[221]
we also have hidden divergences a hidden divergence is a visual non-confirmation
[227]
characterized by higher lows of the price but lower indicator values during
[234]
an uptrend and lower highs of the price and higher indicator values during a
[241]
downtrend hidden divergences signal continuation moves in the direction of
[246]
the prevailing trend so that's the main difference between the regular
[251]
divergences and the hidden ones the regular divergences indicate reversals
[256]
while hidden divergences indicate continuation so remember this important
[262]
rule a hidden divergence has two patterns
[266]
first we have the bullish shootin divergence in a bullish hidden
[270]
divergence the oscillator makes lower lows but the price makes either a higher
[276]
low or a double bottom low this type of pattern occurs mainly during upward
[282]
collections let's take a look at this example the price was in a very strong
[287]
upward trend and recorded an important collection the price resumed its initial
[293]
upward direction they recorded another pullback and you can observe the price
[298]
failed to record new lows and closed higher than the previous downward swing
[304]
however if we look at the oscillator in recorded a lower low thus forming a
[310]
hidden divergence and signaling that a possible upward movement is on a cards
[316]
then we have the bearish hidden divergence in a bearish hidden
[321]
divergence the oscillator makes higher highs what the price makes either lower
[327]
highs or double bottom hires this type of pattern appears mainly during
[333]
downtrend corrections in this example after a strong uptrend the recent price
[339]
action indicated a downward momentum with the price making lower highs
[344]
despite the fact that the price was making lower highs the oscillator
[349]
recorded higher highs thus forming hidden divergence now let's see the best
[356]
indicators you could use to identify divergences the relative strength index
[361]
is a powerful indicator and one of the most reliable oscillators when used
[366]
correctly a great use of the relative strength index is to search for
[371]
divergences between the RSI and the price of the stock let's use the Tesla
[377]
stock as an example with the errors I added on the chart and let's see what we
[381]
find here is a regular divergence and here is a hidden divergence another
[391]
great indicator for divergence trading is the CCI the commodity channel index
[396]
is an oscillator used in technical analysis in order to measure the
[401]
variation of a stock's price from a statistical mean there are two main
[406]
methods used by traders to interpret the commodity channel index looking for
[412]
divergences and as an overbought or oversold indicator let's analyze this
[418]
Amazon chart in this area we have a regular divergence and here is that
[425]
hidden divergence if you want to learn more about the CCI
[430]
go watch an in-depth video about this indicator here another useful tool for
[438]
spotting divergences is the obv the unbalanced volume is a momentum
[443]
indicator that relates volume to price change the obv shows if the market
[449]
volume is flowing into or out of a security or stock divergences occur when
[456]
the price movement is not confirmed by the obv I use the obv mainly for regular
[463]
divergences in this example we have the market making higher highs and higher
[469]
lows but gob be signaling the end of the trend also probably my favorite
[479]
indicator for identifying divergences the stochastic the stochastic oscillator
[484]
is a momentum indicator excellent at pinpointing divergences on this chart we
[491]
have a regular divergence here and a hidden divergence here
[502]
I also use the money flow index for spotting divergences this indicator
[507]
measures the strength of money flowing in and out of a security or a stock the
[513]
money flow index is related to the relative strength index but with a twist
[518]
while the RSI only incorporates price the money flow also incorporates the
[524]
volume the money flow index is great at spotting divergences because it also has
[530]
a big advantage it incorporates the volume in this example we have a clear
[535]
irregular divergence in the hidden divergence here another good indicator
[544]
for divergence trading is the awesome oscillator the awesome oscillator
[550]
compares the recent momentum with a momentum over a wider upper frame of
[555]
reference the indicator is plotted as a histogram and is used to confirm the
[561]
trends and determine possible cycle turning points if you want to learn more
[566]
about the awesome oscillator here is a great tutorial on how to trade with it
[571]
also the momentum indicator can also generate decent divergence signals here
[579]
we have a regular divergence signaling the end of the trend and here we have a
[585]
hidden divergence indicating a continuation of the trend and of course
[593]
finally the MACD probably the most used indicator for spotting divergences by
[600]
traders not by me personally in my opinion the MACD is one of the worst
[605]
indicators but you can find some divergence signals with it the regular
[610]
ones in particular like the obvious signal on this chart now here is an
[616]
important tip divergences are more reliable when you are using higher
[621]
timeframes a signal that is produced on the 4-hour chart or on the daily chart
[627]
is more reliable than a signal produced on the 15-minute chart
[632]
where the vergence is more reliable on higher time frames because the market
[637]
doesn't move as fast and is easier to define trends you'll see the pattern
[642]
developing and you'll have time to make the correct decisions so if you learn
