    Oh and BTW the Dow also has been showing RSI divergence on timeframes from quarterly down to most recently daily last week.

    Your post is probably *very* meaningful to you.
    But to the rest of us, we're kinda,.... "So?" o_O

    Posting what you would use as entrys and exits of the RSI would be much more meaningful.
    If they exist.
    Not to put you on the spot or anything....

    Get creative and you too can smash the returns of any generic crapola . This is a regime filter and it AINT in your generic drop down menu . This is the point im making , if you use what everyone else uses can you expect returns in the top decile ? Have i been fighting the trend in last 2 weeks , shit no , have i had a week that most can only dream of . shit yeah . Is there more to my system , you bet and none of it is in your drop down menu of trash ScreenShot1307.jpg

    Divergence is just an indicator/filter that doesnt work . divergence isnt binary , its confusion , never forget that ...

    Yeah i know this wont be popular but it is a fact , most need to unlearn what they have learnt on TA ... its false hope

    If there is confusion, at times it is helpful to add more and finer distinctions;

    convergence
    increasing convergence
    peaking convergence
    decreasing convergence
    cross-over
    entwined
    divergence
    increasing divergence
    peaking divergence
    decreasing divergence

    depending on perspective, there is overlap

    ie. increasing convergence is also decreasing divergence

    After understanding the mechanics of indicators, their pros and cons and inherent limitations, Price and Volume are the basics to build upon.

    I have the same experience. Tried it along time but never had good results. Found something different and better.
