Curriculum

The divergence detection curriculum used in Insightfuldata technical analysis training — swing rules, oscillator mapping, and confirmation filters.

The curriculum is the spine of the Divergence Detection Masterclass and the reference for clinics and labs. It is not a self-paced product — it describes what we teach in live sessions.

Track overview

Swing definition before oscillators

How Insightfuldata marks swing highs and lows on the working timeframe, when to promote a swing to the next higher timeframe, and why ambiguous swings invalidate divergence claims.

Oscillator behaviour on your settings

RSI, MACD histogram, and stochastic — what each measures, how lookback length changes peak timing, and why switching mid-argument creates false agreement.

Regular divergence

Price versus oscillator disagreement at potential turning zones. Classroom work emphasises failed cases drawn from Australian equities and major FX pairs so beauty bias does not win.

Hidden divergence

Continuation-oriented disagreements. We map when hidden readings support an existing trend note and when they merely decorate a choppy range.

Confirmation filters

Structure breaks, volume context where available, and higher-timeframe alignment. Filters are written into a personal checklist, not left as optional folklore.

Journal integration

How to log divergence candidates you took, skipped, or misread. The masterclass includes one formal pass over a short trade-log excerpt.

How the map meets lessons

  • Masterclass — full track across six sessions
  • Chart clinic — deep cut on one or two steps using your live charts
  • Oscillator lab — intensive time on steps two and three for a cohort
