Delta Divergence

Recommended Posts

Credit and thanks goes out to Blu-Ray for developing this indicator. The original post can be located here.

 

" It's based on the High of Day and Low of Day, I've also coded it with the alerts to fire off when a divergence appears.

 

Note: when testing it today, Alerts were really annoying within the first 15-30 minutes of the day, as they kept firing off when the market is finding it's range. ( Maybe that was my fault because I was testing it on 5 different symbols ;) )

 

Also coded it up into a "Show Me", so it will plot a dot with the relevant color when a divergence appears. However, I've coded this one up to fire off as soon as the next bar starts. As what would happen, it would plot a dot when divergence started to appear within a bar, but by the time the bar finished and there was no divergence the dot would still be there.

 

Note: to anyone unfamilar with this indicator, it will only work on LIVE data ( not historical )"

I am using a 1 min and a 144 tick chart. I had it on for a day and did not get any divergences on the ym charts. What am I doing wrong here. If you do it on volume how do you plot it on a tick chart.

Thanks

You were not specific with your symbol and tick setting and datafeed source, but it should work with tick charts if the symbol traded a few times at higher higher (HH) or lower lows (LL) with respect to the HOD or LOD, respectively.

 

For example the attached showed about a dozen DD (Delta Diverg.) this AM with the ESH08 189 tick, TS data feed. A trader wouldn't have been very successful buying the DD (shown blue) for the first 10 signals or so. However, the signal could be useful in combination with other trend determination.

Thanks I think I got it working--- I noticed you are using the front month on the ES and I have been using the Continuous so that may have been the problem... thanks for the pic!:)

Apologies if this has already been covered but does the divergence indicator in this thread calculate a divergence in the same way as this video

 

http://blog.marketdelta.com/index.php?s=Divergence&submit=

 

I am not a TS indicator expert but if blue ray is able to say whether any of the posted indicators is capable of being edited. The video seems to look in particular at lows in a range and then applying the divergence related to that position.

 

This forum is excellent (sharing of practical information). I think it was in the forum that I only recently realised ninjatrader had such good charting and flexibility in processing data.

 

Best regards

Great Blu-Ray and many thanks as watching that video I understood what the logic was trying to do (painting a divergence where it might matter). I understand that it has to run real time so I will watch it over the next few days to get acquainted with its action.

Hi Blu-Ray,

I see that you developed the Delta Divergence indicator for TS. I use NinjaTrader and was wondering if I could get a textfile of the EL code, so that I can port it to NinjaTrader.

Please feel free to give me a flat "no" if this is an imposition.

 

Thanks

NO !! ...................... ;)...... lol... only joking, here you go :

 

inputs:

UpColor(Green),

DownColor(Red),

UpDivergence(Blue),

DownDivergence(Magenta);

 

variables:

 

MyVol(0), LL(0),HH(0),

Color(yellow),

intrabarpersist MyCurrentBar(0),

intrabarpersist VolumeAtBid(0),

intrabarpersist VolumeAtAsk(0),

intrabarpersist BAVolDiff(0),

intrabarpersist VolTmp(0);

 

if date <> date[1] then begin

LL = low;

HH = High;

end;

 

if Low < LL then LL = Low;

if High > HH then HH = high;

 

 

 

if LastBarOnChart then begin

MyVol = Iff(BarType < 2, Ticks, Volume);

if CurrentBar > MyCurrentBar then begin

VolumeAtBid = 0;

VolumeAtAsk = 0;

BAVolDiff= 0;

VolTmp = 0;

MyCurrentBar = CurrentBar;

end;

if InsideBid < InsideAsk then begin

if Close <= InsideBid then

VolumeAtBid = VolumeAtBid + MyVol - VolTmp

else if Close >= InsideAsk then

VolumeAtAsk = VolumeAtAsk + MyVol - VolTmp ;

end;

if VolumeAtBid > 0 and VolumeAtAsk > 0 then BAVolDiff= VolumeAtAsk-VolumeAtBid ;

VolTmp = MyVol ;

end ;

if BAVolDiff<= 0 then color = DownColor else color = UpColor;

 

plot1(BAVolDiff, "BAVolDiff", color);

Plot2( 0, "ZeroLine" ) ;

 

if low = LL and BAVolDiff> 0 then begin

setplotcolor(1,UpDivergence);

Alert( "New Low_Bid/Ask_Divergence");

end;

 

if high = HH and BAVolDiff< 0 then begin

setplotcolor(1,DownDivergence);

Alert ("New High_Bid/Ask_Divergence");

end;

 

 

Hope this helps

Astro there are a whole bunch of Ninja 'delta' type indicators (as there are TS ones :)). I don't recall there being any that do divergence but it would probably be easier to use one of those as a starting point. I believe they are filed under 'buy sell' in the Ninja indicator section of the forum.

Thanks you Bluray for developing this indicator. I have been using it so far on 20 min currency futures charts and like what I see.

 

I wanted to change the color of the blue show me dot to a color that I can see better on my chart. I have tried changing the color on both the Input tab, and under the color tab and I have not had any luck. Should Updivergence and Down divergence both be the same color under both tabs? I have tried this and havent had any luck. Any insight into this would be appreciated very much.

 

Bluray thaks again to the contributions you have made to this site.

 

Scott

    • Date: 28th March 2024. The US Dollar Strengthens As Economists Believe The ECB Will Struggle To “Hold”. Early this morning, the Fed Governor advised “there is no rush to cut rates” and “the data within the upcoming months” will be vital. The US Dollar Index rises to a 1-month high. The value of the USD will largely be based on today’s data on economic growth, consumer sentiment and pending home sales. Dollar and index traders are closely monitoring tomorrow’s Core PCE Price Index which analysts expect will read 0.3%. A higher inflation reading can potentially pressure stocks and support the Dollar. Strong declines in NVIDIA and Netflix stocks pressured the NASDAQ on Wednesday. Though, buyers entered late in the session to boost the overall price. EURUSD The latest comments from members of the Federal Reserve are supporting the US Dollar. The forward guidance between members of the Federal Reserve is mainly not aligned. The Chairman advises the Fed does not need much more proof for the regulator to feel comfortable reducing rates. Whereas the Fed Governor, Mr Waller, advises there is no rush, and he wants to see a few months of data before determining the next move. Therefore, the upcoming inflation and employment data will remain vital and could even push back rate hikes further. According to economists, the Federal Reserve will cut the interest rate on 3 occasions this year, but the timing of the first cut is less certain and may change depending on upcoming data. A positive factor for traders is that EURUSD exchange is not witnessing conflicting currencies. The US Dollar is trading 0.12% higher while the Euro is declining against most currencies. The Euro is trading 0.06% lower against the Pound and the Canadian Dollar and 0.16% lower against the Japanese Yen. Yesterday, the head of the Bank of Italy, Mr Cipollone, said that the authorities were confident that inflation would return to the target of 2.0% by mid–2025. He also supports the lower of interest rate and will use this as a basis for adjusting monetary policy. The Euro is generally under pressure as investors believe the European Central Bank will struggle to avoid cuts if the Fed decide to delay their adjustments. The US Dollar will be influenced by four major economic data releases. The US Final GDP, Weekly Unemployment Claims, Pending Home Sales and Consumer Sentiment Index. If these read higher than expectations with the weekly unemployment claims dropping, the US Dollar is likely to witness further support. However, investors should note the main release will be tomorrow’s Core PCE Price Index. Traders are expecting no major news for Europe and volatility levels may fall tomorrow as European markets are closed for Easter. Technical analysis currently points towards a continued downward trend. The price is trading below the neutral on the RSI and below the 75-Bar EMA. However, investors should note this will also be dependent on upcoming US data. USA100 The price of the USA100 was under pressure throughout the whole US session but was saved by an increased volume of buyers late in the session. However, a positive point is the components held onto their value. Even though the index fell in value, only 28% of the components declined. Investors will now turn their attention towards tomorrow’s PCE Price Index and the upcoming earnings season which will start in mid-April. The price is now trading slightly above the Moving Averages but slightly below the 50.00 on the RSI. Therefore, technical analysis remains at the “neutral” level and continues to indicate a larger price range. If today’s economic data is positive the stock market can witness confidence and support as this continues to indicate a soft landing. Though, if the data is too strong, it could also trigger a hawkish Fed which is known to be negative for the USA100. Always trade with strict risk management.
