Divergence Scanner Guide

RSI and OBV divergences for research

The divergence scanner helps you find RSI and OBV divergences between price and indicator behaviour. Use divergences as hypotheses to study on Chart — not as standalone entry signals. This surface documents RSI/OBV — do not assume MACD or hidden divergences are included.

Key points

  • Focus on RSI/OBV divergences as documented on the tool
  • Hidden or MACD divergences are not claimed on this surface
  • Confirm with structure and risk before acting
  • Works best with multi-timeframe context
  • Treat disagreement as a question, not a prediction

Why this matters

Divergences highlight tension between price and momentum/flow. They are useful alerts for deeper chart work — not automated reversal guarantees.

How to use this in your workflow

1. Scan for divergences

Open the divergence scanner and review matches.

2. Open Chart

Inspect whether price structure supports the divergence story.

3. Optional filters

Cross-check with screener or Smart Indicator Filter criteria.

4. Define invalidation

If you act later, know what price would negate the idea.

Common pitfalls

  • Assuming every divergence reverses
  • Claiming MACD/hidden coverage when the tool lists RSI/OBV
  • Skipping higher-timeframe structure
