Good morning t3t4, i am not here to argue, i appoligize if you took it that way, yes a few live examples for you, first one, is a current cable 30 min chart,second one is your chart you posted,i added the blue lines to show no divergence present, . hope this helps... mike
No worries Mike,
I concur, you nailed a MUCH better example then I did. While I won't admit I'm wrong with my example, yours was much better and more life like!
Thank you for the humbling experience, I didn't look far enough for proof.
EUR/USD Break of 30-minute trend line - In my live 6am webinar, I scalped the Euro break below the 30-minute trend line targeting the 1.2780 area. 7 wins, 0 losses. With U.S. retail sales coming out, I'll stay flat until the fireworks have passed.

It happens to me all the time, not a problem and no worries! But I just wanted to say thank you for the explanation. You backed up totally what I have said in pre and post, posts. While I did a mediocre job at showing proof of divergence, Mike nailed it! You laid the ground work and we showed the proof as we understand it to be.
Couldn't ask for more, your explanation is/was spot on!
But what about this advanced or complex divergence you were speaking of, could you show us or otherwise direct us to a site we could learn from?
The way the EUR has just baunced off that support line i would be very careful on adding anymore shorts and i just moved my shorts to lock in more profit
FAITH is Believing what you Dont SEE The REWARD of FAITH is Seing What you BELIEVE
I came up with a better way to explain it i trade only with a plain chart and follow price behaviour. I let the charts prices tell me what they want to do and not some indicators which wont be able to tell you if the ECB intend to intervene.
The chart price will behave in certain why when something is cooking
Well there you go, that's my game exactly! Can't believe I missed this post.....
ND: on UP trend..Next possible movement : DOWN
reference points: top
PD: on DOWN trend.. Next possible movement : UP

Stryke I couldn't make it for the London session, the zzzzz(s) was too powerfully good to fight. Looks like I didn't miss much but I'm well rested. I might call it an early weekend, get some stuff done with the auto. GL my friend and a stellar weekend.
T3t4 there's nothing wrong with your count except for w2 is still cooking(incomplete). The drop so far is impulsive, which happens in zig-zag corrections, and may fall as far as 50-61.8 of your w1. But for now, the drop looks to be near wA of 2 completion.
A-Yoooooooooooo
Go ahead switch the style up' And if they hate then let them hate and watch the money pile up.'
t3t4, here is an example between regular divergence and hidden divergence
Thanks Mike,
I must say that I don't see much if any difference between the HH (higher high) or the HL (higher low) on the regular chart verses the hidden chart. I like to think I'm pretty darn good at pattern recognition, but these moves seem so miniscual, and yet their relevant?
I have to wonder if I'm missing something here... Thanks for posting, I saved the image and will study it further.
Too early in My Morning for all this Tech Stuff.
It still all boils down to when You pull the Trigger to Buy or Sell. Thats where the Money is won or lost.
Now I'll tell Ya what I did last Night, Based strictly on My Gestalt Method or Madaam Babushka's Crystal Ball if You will.
The Market had been stuck in a Range between 1.2825 and 1.2865. So I placed a Short order at 1.2875 with a 50 pip stop and a 50 pip TP. Then I went to Bed. The Brownies worked Their Magic as I slept and I'm a wealthier Man this Morning.
Like The Rest of Us, I pour over the Charts noting divergences, over bought, oversold, RSI CCI, CSi,etc.
Forget about that CSI. Thats a TV Show. LOL
Sittin on the sideline now, waiting for the U.S. Data, like the rest of You I think.
Friday the 13th PG? Might be a good thing to wrap up Trading a Day early, Ya think?
Happy Trading!
