Update on the OBV lesson A good example of how the bearish OBV divergence played out. Obviously you don't know how long the line is going to be but you could see how it chugged along higher while the OBV started grinding lower. When OBV is a leading indicator (volume based) you start to notice that people were taking profits and volume started coming down as price pushed up higher. Divergences are usually better for taking profits than shorting because of the timing The hardest part about shorts is how exact the timing has to be but when you notice a divergence you can start having a sense of where to take some profits. As you can see sometimes the length of them are longer but eventually price likes to catch up with OBV. Now we also get to see what happens when OBV is starting to show a breakdown while price hasn't quite down that yet. It can snap back into the range but it's a good chart to watch for lessons rather than try to actually take.
