Indicator Overview
The CMF Divergence Indicator fluctuates between -1 and +1, making it useful for trend confirmation and identifying trading signals:
- Positive Divergence: When the price forms lower lows but CMF registers higher lows, it signals a decrease in selling pressure, increasing the likelihood of a bullish reversal. On the chart, this divergence is represented by a blue line
- Negative Divergence: When the price forms higher highs but CMF registers lower highs, it signals weakening buying pressure and a higher probability of correction or a bearish trend shift. This divergence is represented by a pink line on the chart
Indicator in an Uptrend
In the AUD/CHF uptrend, after confirming positive divergence, the price starts rising, and the indicator generates a buy signal.
If CMF crosses above the zero line, this further strengthens the trend's validity.

Indicator in a Downtrend
In the AUD/CAD 1-hour chart, after detecting a divergence between price and CMF oscillator, the indicator issues a sell signal.
When the CMF line crosses below zero, the bearish trend becomes more reliable.
