There might be answer in there somewhere? Anyway a failure swing is a failure swing. Not my topic so if your point is on failure swings fine by me But my question, like the topic, was on divergences? BTW both the 2nd and 3rd images, unlike the 1st, did diverge.
"how indicative" you say? in response to that i will ask how indicative of what? it is a good indication that momentum is diminishing. Divergence indicates something is changing, but it does not mean the trend will reverse. can momo resume in the same direction? oh hell yeah. that brings many traders to a next logical step... The Failure Swing Setup, which is plotted on an RSI Divergence.
what start time and end time are you covering in your evaluation to determine if a divergence exists for the 1st example?
