Divergence Cheat Sheet

Let's review!

There are two types of divergences:

1. Regular divergence
2. Hidden divergence

Each type of divergence will contain either a bullish bias or a bearish bias.

Since you've all be studying hard and not been cutting class, we've decided to help y'all out (cause we're nice like that) by giving you a cheat sheet to help you spot out regular and hidden divergences quickly.

Type	Bias	Price	Oscillator	Description	Example
Regular	Bullish	Lower Low	Higher Low	Indicates underlying strength. Bears are exhausted.  Warning of possible trend direction change from downtrend to uptrend.
	Bearish	Higher High	Lower High	Indicates underlying weakness. Bulls are exhausted.  Warning of possible trend direction change from uptrend to downtrend.
Hidden	Bullish	Higher Low	Lower Low	Indicates underlying strength. Good entry or re-entry. Occurs during retracements in an uptrend. Nice to see during price retest of previous lows. "Buy the dips"
	Bearish	Lower High	Higher High	Indicates underlying weakness. Found during retracements in a downtrend. Nice to see during price retests of previous highs. "Sell the rallies"

Whew! That's quite a lot to remember, isn't it? We'll give you two options:

1. You can write this all down in your palm and look back on it while trading. If you're the type who gets sweaty palms when you're nervous, we wouldn't recommend this.
2. You can simply bookmark this page and just revisit it when you mix up those higher lows, lower highs, lower lows, and higher highs. You don't want to make a wild guess while coming up with a trade, do you?
