Best Practices
Choose an Appropriate Timeframe

Depending on your trading style (day trading vs. swing trading), divergences might appear more or less frequently. You may get more whipsaws on lower timeframes, so always backtest on multiple timeframes before going live.
Adjust Pivots

The number of bars used to confirm a pivot (in the script it’s set around 2–5 bars) can significantly affect the sensitivity. You can tweak those settings if you want fewer or more frequent divergences.
Combine with Other Tools

Divergences can be powerful signals, but they’re not foolproof. This script works best if combined with other confluences such as support/resistance lines, volume analysis, or higher-timeframe trends.
Paper Trade & Backtest

Always test any new strategy in a demo environment or with TradingView’s backtesting to see its historical performance, then forward-test in live market conditions with minimal risk.
Risk Management

Since markets can move quickly, consider using the optional stop-loss parameter or external stop management. The hidden divergence exit can help reduce drawdowns, but no exit strategy is perfect.
In Summary
If you’re looking to trade RSI divergences automatically, this strategy simplifies the process by drawing and extending RSI trendlines, confirming entries on their break, and exiting trades at a fixed profit target or upon detecting a hidden divergence in the opposite direction. Customize the RSI settings, take-profit percentage, and (optionally) a stop loss to fit your preferences. Always remember to backtest thoroughly and employ sound risk management.
