  I have read so many threads on this forum about divergence and convergence...combining RSI and Divergence, EMA with Divergence etc.
 
 Sorry to sound such a noob, can someone point to any website or any documentation where I can read what is Divergence and Convergence and how do you combine it with other indicators?

  gocats,
 
 if you'll Google "Convergence Divergence", you'll find (among others) http://www.trade10.com/Convergence.html which looks like a pretty thorough discussion.

  Simply put...
 
 DIVERGENCE
 
 If a lower price is making a higher RSI(2) value that is POSITIVE DIVERGENCE... get ready to load the boat!
 
 If a higher price is making a lower RSI(2) value that is NEGATIVE DIVERGENCE... get ready to get your shorts on!

  But TRO, how can RSI(2) increase when price is falling?

  gocats,
 
 Because "MOMENTUM PRECEEDS PRICE" !
 
 It's one of the first tenets of Technical Analysis.
 
 As you study more...it will make more sense !
