Gold with Divergence in MT4 MetaTrader 5 Download
Divergence Gold Setup is one of the Gold trade setups used by traders. It involves looking at a chart and one more technical indicator. For our example we shall use the MACDxauusd indicator.
To spot this xauusd divergence setup find 2 chart points at which xauusd gold price forms a new swing high or new swing low but the MACD indicator does not, indicating a divergence setup between price & momentum.
To look for divergence setup we look for 2 chart points, 2 highs that form an M-shape on the chart or 2 lows that form a W-Shape on the chart. Then look for the same M shape or W shape in the technical indicator you use to trade.
Example of a Trade Divergence Setup:
In the chart below we identify 2 points, point A & point B (swing highs). These two chart points form an M-Shape on the price chart.
Then using MACD indicator we check the highs made by MACD technical technical indicator, these are the highs that are directly below Chart points A and B.
We then plot & draw one line on the chart & another line on the MACD technical indicator.

How to identify divergence setups
In order to identify divergence trade setup we check for the following:
- HH = Higher High - 2 highs but the last is higher
- LH = Lower High - 2 highs but last one is lower
- HL=Higher Low : two lows but the last is higher
- LL = Lower Low - 2 lows but the last is lower
First let us look at the exemplifications of these divergence terms:
M shapes dealing with price Highs

W Shapes dealing with the price lows

Example of M shapes on Charts
