RSIMA Baseline Divergence Indicator

The RSIMA Baseline Divergence Indicator for MT4 is a powerful technical tool designed to detect high-quality divergence signals in Forex and other financial markets. By combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with a baseline moving average (MA), this indicator helps traders identify potential trend reversals and fine-tune entry points.

It is suitable for traders of all skill levels—from beginners learning divergence strategies to experts implementing sophisticated trend-following or counter-trend systems.

How the RSIMA Baseline Divergence Indicator Works

The indicator detects opposite behavior between price and RSI to highlight divergence setups:

Bullish Divergence: Occurs when the price forms a lower low while the RSI forms a higher low.

Bearish Divergence: Happens when the price forms a higher high while the RSI forms a lower high.

To filter false signals, the indicator adds a baseline MA. Crossover signals are plotted when the RSI crosses the baseline:

Blue Color: Bullish crossover

Red Color: Bearish crossover

These visual cues make it easy to identify reliable divergence setups.

Trading Signals Explained

Buy Signal

A bullish divergence occurs, with RSI below 30 (oversold zone).

RSI crosses above the baseline MA (blue crossover).

Consider entering a BUY / LONG position after confirming with price action, e.g., bullish engulfing or hammer candlestick.

Sell Signal

A bearish divergence occurs, with RSI above 70 (overbought zone).

RSI crosses below the baseline MA (red crossover).

Enter a SELL / SHORT position after confirming with a bearish candlestick pattern such as an inverted hammer or bearish engulfing.

Using these rules ensures trades are aligned with high-probability trend-reversal points, reducing risk and improving profitability.
