RSI Divergence Setups - Bullish Divergence RSI and Bearish Divergence RSI

FX Divergence is a trade setup used by traders. It means looking at both a chart and another indicator. We'll use the RSI indicator as our example.

To identify divergence setups, locate two chart points where the price forms a new swing high or swing low, but the RSI does not follow suit. This disparity between price and momentum indicates a divergence.

RSI Forex Divergence Example:

In the chart below we identify 2 points, point A and point B (swing highs)

Then, using RSI, we look at the highs created by the RSI indicator: these highs are right below the points labeled A and B on the chart.

We then draw one line on the trading chart & another line on the RSI.
