Momentum divergence is a two-part pattern where price prints a new high or low but a momentum oscillator like RSI fails to confirm with a corresponding new extreme. The mismatch signals that the visible price move is not being supported by underlying momentum.

It forms when two consecutive prominent price pivots disagree with two corresponding pivots on the momentum oscillator. Bullish: lower price low, higher momentum low. Bearish: higher price high, lower momentum high.
