OBV Divergence Finder

Finds confirmed swing highs and lows in price and compares the On-Balance Volume at those swings. Bullish divergence: price makes a lower low while OBV makes a higher low (selling is drying up). Bearish divergence: price makes a higher high while OBV makes a lower high (buying is drying up). Hidden divergences (trend continuation) are an option. Swings are confirmed only after the right-side bars

How to use it

Treat divergences as warnings, not entries: wait for a structure break or trend filter in the same direction. Pivot 5/5 suits 1h-4h; the 60-bar maximum gap stops comparing swings that are too far apart. Concept: Joseph Granville, On-Balance Volume ("Granville's New Key to Stock Market Profits", 1963); classic regular / hidden divergence rules.

Back-tests and forward tests are simulations; past results do not predict future ones. Nothing here is financial advice. Trading carries a high risk of loss.
