Been manually calculating divergences and it’s getting tedious. Looking at different calculators but most seem basic or give inconsistent results.
What do you actually use that gives reliable signals? Need something that catches both regular and hidden divergences properly.
Just use your platform’s basic RSI and mark levels yourself.
Tested a bunch of divergence calculators. Most just add noise.
ForexFactory’s Divergence Dashboard was decent for scanning multiple pairs, but it missed subtle divergences I could spot by eye.
What worked? I tracked every divergence I found and noted which ones made money, combined with backtesting basic platform indicators.
Hidden divergences on 4H charts gave me the best risk/reward. Regular ones? Better for exits than entries.
Skip the fancy tools. Use standard RSI or Stochastic and learn which market conditions work.
I just draw trend lines on price and RSI manually. Takes practice but works better than any calculator I tried.
Forget the calculators. Manual identification beats any automated system every time. Those calculators miss context and throw out tons of false signals. Just use regular RSI and MACD on your platform, but learn to eyeball the patterns. Watch for price hitting new highs while RSI drops - that’s your classic bearish divergence. Confirmation is everything. Don’t jump in until price action actually backs up what the divergence is telling you.
Most built-in indicators work great once you adjust the settings for your strategy.
I stick with basic MACD or RSI divergence tools on my platform rather than hunting down specialized calculators.
Knowing which signals to watch matters more than relying on automated tools.
Try using TradingView for divergence it’s user friendly.
