4 Types Of Forex Divergences
Using divergences to predict price action is an advanced 
trading technique, but the bottom line is that these are 
used to identify continuations or reversals in trends. In 
particular, divergence traders watch the lows and highs 
of price along with the lows and highs of the oscillator 
they are using. Below are four kinds of divergences in 
forex.
First is the regular bullish divergence. This takes place 
when the currency pair has lower lows but the oscillator 
has higher lows. As a reversal indicator, it shows that the 
downtrend made by the previous lower lows in price is 
about to be reversed and that an uptrend is ready to 
take place.
The second kind is known as the regular bearish 
divergence. The opposite of the bullish divergence, it is 
used to signal a reversal in the ongoing uptrend. This 
takes place when price makes higher highs but the 
oscillator draws lower highs. This indicates that sellers 
have gathered enough energy to push the pair out of its 
current uptrend.
The third kind is known as the hidden bullish divergence. 
It is useful in predicting a possible continuation of the 
ongoing uptrend. This happens as price makes higher 
lows while stochastic draws lower lows, indicating that 
buyers have more momentum to push the pair higher.
The last kind is known as the hidden bearish divergence. 
The opposite of the bullish divergence, it is used to 
predict a continuation of the current downtrend. This 
happens as price makes lower highs while stochastic has 
higher highs, indicating that sellers have enough fuel to 
push the pair lower.
Take note though that there are several conventions 
when it comes to correctly identifying trading 
divergences. Some are stricter with their rules for 
marking highs and lows, as some want the oscillator to 
reach 80 to be called a high or to dip below 20 to be 
called a low.
