RSI Indicator Divergence Setups
Divergence is one of the trade setups used by traders. It involves looking at a trade chart & one more technical indicator. For our example we shall use the RSI indicator.
To spot this divergence setup find two Stock Indices trade chart points at which price makes a new swing high or a new swing low but the RSI indicator does not, indicating a divergence between price & momentum.
RSI Divergence Example:
In the trade chart below we identify two Stock Indices trade chart points, point A and point B (swing highs)
Then using RSI indicator we check the highs made by the RSI indicator, these are the highs that are directly below the Trade Chart points A and B.
We then draw one line on the trade chart & another line on the RSI indicator.
