Most indicators are highly correlated to price, but you could try 
overlapping peak/trough signals and get some divergence signals this 
way.

Try the indicator below, and note that ZigZag-based signals are 
dynamic in the last leg.  Reference the indicator for your Expert 
signals.

Peak-Trough divergence

{ User Inputs }
perP:=Input("Price %minimum change",.01,100,2);
perI:=Input("Indicator %minimum change",
 .01,1000,3);
lap:=Input("Overlap peak/troughs by x periods",
 .1,260,2);

{ Price }
x:=C;

{ Price Peaks/Troughs }
pkPr:=Alert(PeakBars(1,x,perP)=0,lap);
trPr:=Alert(TroughBars(1,x,perP)=0,lap);
PkTrPr:=pkPr-trPr;

{ Sample indicator }
ind:=MACD();

{ Indicator Peaks/Troughs }
pkInd:=Alert(PeakBars(1,ind,perI)=0,lap);
trInd:=Alert(TroughBars(1,ind,perI)=0,lap);
PkTrInd:=pkInd-trInd;

{ Price/Indicator Peak-Trough divergence }
diverg:=-PkTrInd=PkTrPr AND PkTrPr<>0;

{ Plot in own window }
diverg

---8<--------------------

Another possible solution would be to compare the +/- slope of the two 
ZigZags, rather than their peaks/troughs, but this will yield many 
signals.
