DIVERGENCE! 🤬 (Please help)

Can someone pleeeeeeaaaaaase clear this up for me?

When I Google “divergence” and look up images to keep in another tab, I’m met with this:

vs

Google either doesn’t know the write answer or can’t parse these well enough to discern their accuracy.

Please someone, which of these is correct?

:pray::pray::pray:

So, maybe I’m tripping, but the second diagram is the wrong way round. I cannot find any other diagram that correlates with that one. It also makes no logical sense. So either they commissioned someone to make the diagram, who reversed the whole process, or it’s manipulation by smart money and the market makers. :joy::moneybag: (Good band name that)
I’m no expert, but if the second one is right I’ve been de-diverging the whole time. It would explain my trading results, to be fair. :thinking:

Oscillators are a derivative of historical prices.

Historical prices cannot predict future price movements.

Derivatives of historical prices can trend up before they go down, or trend up before they go up, or go sideways before they go up. There are no advantages by calculating derivatives of historical prices. Both can be true, unable to know when.

The second diagram that you posted has Bearish and Bullish mislabeled.

This is a correct diagram:

That makes much more sense.

Certainly something was very wrong with the original version! :open_mouth:

What if we cld use historical prices on a correlated price instrument - classically risk.

Perhaps XAU/USD & USD/JPY come Monday & Stocks signalling a buy on the latter?

Long time since i looked at Will-Spread so will be interesting since most guys are negative stocks right now…
