Divergence Detector

I am trying to use the Divergence Detector study from Sierra to detect regular divergence between 2 charts, but have no idea how it works. I already posted a message on their support forum, but got no help there and the documentation is quite complex for non mathematicians like me.

The first image is what I was expecting to see.

The second image is one example of what the indicator is doing. Notice that I have up and down arrows, but there is no divergence on the places I marked. And also there are many extra arrows.

If the study does not/cannot draw lines that's fine, but at least the arrows must indicate real divergence.

I don't use it, but I *think* the divergence has to be between the main price graph and a study subgraph.

Thanks, but this video refers to a custom indicator, not the one that comes with Sierra. But I sent an email to these guys asking if their indicator is still available.

I also tested the Divergence Detector with other indicators, but still get the same results.

My bad. Removed the video from my earlier post.
