Divergence(Divergence)
Price and an indicator (RSI, MACD, delta) moving in opposite directions: if price makes a new high but the indicator doesn't, momentum is weakening.
Also written as: uyumsuzluk
Negative (bearish) divergence is looked for at highs, positive (bullish) divergence at lows. Divergence gives no timing; when the trend is strong it can form several times in a row while price keeps going.
Best use: the combination of divergence + key level + structure break. In order flow, price–delta divergence is read with the same logic.
