Can someone share his opinion on divergence? And also what about hidden divergence? Which one indicator is the best?

Matty Boy loves wasting time on useless stuff. I guess EDWINGENTNER is just his Sideshow Bob.

Indicators lag. Learn to read the price action and view it within a context.

Everything on a chart is lagging as it has already occurred. We have yet to develop the ability to print future events. Some trade with momentum indicators successfully and some deem them worthless. There are no shortcuts, you have to do your own work. No one will see things exactly as you do.

So by using an indicator you're lagging a lagger...

Yes but that does not make them useless although I wouldn't use them for signals unless there is significant consensus across time frames. I also find them mostly meaningless in strongly trending markets but I do use them as filters across time frames for my signals otherwise.
