What is the Divergence exactly?
As a general conception if the price is making higher highs, then macd should also be making higher highs, and if the price is making lower lows, the macd should also be making lower lows.
When this normal behavior is not followed, that means the price and macd are diverging from each other. There are two types of divergence:
Regular Divergence
- Regular Bullish Divergence: When the price is making lower lows, but the macd is making higher lows.
- Regular Bearish Divergence: When the price is making higher highs, but the macd is making lower highs.
Hidden Divergence
Hidden Bullish Divergence: If the price is making higher lows, but the macd is making lower lows.
- Hidden Bearish Divergence: If the price is making the lower highs, but the macd is making higher highs.
