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

 

Ian

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

    • I guess US has fund managers and investment banking institutions looking after the portfolios on behalf of their clients.
    • There are many resources related to forex trading available on forums like babypips and forexfactory etc.
    • Candle stick pattern is one of the easiest charting patterns available to learn and make money. However, new traders never learn about the skills needed for earning money but they rush for making money and eventually lose their money.
    • Nothing wrong with being a ‘progressive’. Nothing wrong with being a ‘conservative’.  Very generally, ‘conservatives’ have preponderance of the here and now neurotransmitters, prefer empirical references, the rule of law, and value individual agency (It has been said that conservatives love humans and progressives love humanity) . Very generally, ‘progressives’ are dopaginaric - driven by passion for a better possible future, prefer references to others  (Example Karmela won’t answer questions with facts.  She cites the opinion of 18 ‘experts’), have a penchant for rule by man/mobs not by law , and value ‘societal' agency.  However, excesses of either tendency indicates mental illness, collective malaise, and has consequences.  When either camp is systematically captured by control seekers and/or, situationally by mobs, the whole is lessened. A key sign that is occurring is when one side no longer allows disagreement.  Progressives have  currently gone crazy in those excesses and are no longer allowing anything but unithought... examples - You can still be a vocal pro choice republican.  Try being a vocal pro life democrat. For snicks just try it.  You’ll get cancelled.  Bust a myth about blacks in America, true up the real  history of Republicans ending slavery and what has happened since, how the democrats are the party of the KKK, how Obama did not a fkn thang for blacks in general, be a black republican, etc.    You will get canceled in a heartbeat. Step up and question the social agendas of federally subsidized schools at a board meeting... get treated like shit and also get an immediate case number with the FBI ... Question the requirements to watch and lickkiss the 'rainbows' and also make sure your kids show up for it, not to mention fund transitions out of your pocket and see what you get ‘labeled’ Question mainstream media bias - even just to mention that biased, agenda driven narrative is different from truth in reporting - and see what happens to your voice... Excesses have consequences... imbalances have consequences... just sayin’
