RSI CFD Trading Indicator Divergence CFD Setups

CFD Trading Divergence is one of the trade setups used by traders. It involves looking at a chart & one more cfd technical indicator. For our example we shall use the RSI indicator.

To spot this divergence trading setup find two cfd chart points at which price makes a new swing high or a new swing low but the RSI indicator doesn't, indicating a divergence between price and momentum.

RSI CFD Trading Divergence Example:

In the chart below we spot two cfd chart points, point A and point B (swing highs)

Then using RSI indicator we check the highs made by the cfd RSI technical indicator, these are highs that are directly below the cfd Chart points A and B.

We then draw one line on the chart and another line on the RSI indicator.
