I’m using default RSI 14 close while looking for divergence, one thing that’s been bugging me is do I need to include candlewicks when looking for divergence. To me it doesn’t make sense because RSI is going off the close price but every tutorial and article I’ve read includes the wicks… What am I missing?
I [I]think[/I] that what you’re missing is the fact that highs and lows are objective and factual (and signifiers of localised support/resistance), whereas opens and closes are user-defined.
And welcome to the forum.
