Functional Overview

Within MetaTrader 5, the Sibbet Demand Index Divergence Indicator draws divergence lines between the price chart and the demand index, exposing inconsistencies between price fluctuations and the true market force driving them.
Its color-coded histogram displays real-time variations in demand intensity, visualizing the balance of buying and selling pressure to help traders interpret momentum shifts with greater precision.


Bullish Divergence Example

During bullish divergence conditions—illustrated on the EUR/JPY 1-hour chart—the indicator reveals a scenario where:

1. Price creates a lower low, yet the demand index prints a higher low.
2. The divergence reflects strengthening hidden demand and reduced selling activity.
3. This often precedes a bullish reversal, suggesting a potential entry opportunity for long positions.

Such formations demonstrate that while market prices are declining, the internal demand is increasing—an early clue of upward momentum building beneath the surface.


Bearish Divergence Example

In contrast, bearish divergence—observable for instance on XAU/USD (Gold) over a 1-hour timeframe—occurs when:

1. Price establishes higher highs, while the oscillator forms lower highs.
2. This pattern indicates weakening demand and buyer exhaustion.
3. The resulting divergence frequently signals a downward reversal or correction phase.

These early warnings allow traders to anticipate potential trend exhaustion before it becomes visible on the price chart.
