The E.G. Divergence is an indicator implemented for the NinjaTrader 8 platforms. Divergence in technical analysis may signal a major positive or negative price move; divergence is when the price of an asset is moving in the opposite direction of a technical indicator, such as an oscillator, or is moving contrary to other data.
Divergence is when the price and indicator are telling the trader different things. Confirmation is when the indicator and price, or multiple indicators, are telling the trader the same thing. Ideally, traders want confirmation to enter trades while in trades. If the price is moving up, they want their indicators to signal that the price move is likely to continue; traders use divergence to assess the underlying momentum in the price of an asset and to assess the likelihood of a price reversal.
For example, investors can plot oscillators, like the Relative Strength Index (RSI), on a price chart. If the stock is rising and making new highs, ideally the RSI is reaching new highs as well. If the stock is making new highs, but the RSI starts making lower highs, this warns the price uptrend may be weakening.
Integration with the E.G. Trigger Point (optional)
To increase the signals’ probability, the E.G. Divergence indicator can be automatically integrated with the E.G. Trigger Point levels to confirm position entries when a divergence is detected; it can be configured to only generate sound effects when the market is near a Trigger Point level.
Trading is risky and most day traders lose money. This site & products & services E.G. Indicators LTD offers are for informational and educational purposes only. All content is to be considered hypothetical, selected after the face, in order to demonstrate our products and should not be constructed as financial advice. Decisions to buy, sell, hold, or trade in securities, and other investments involve risk and are best made based on the advice of financial professionals. Futures, foreign currency, digital currency, and options trading involves substantial risk and is not appropriate for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
