ADX Technical Analysis & ADX Stock Signals
Built and Made by J. Welles Wilder
This is a momentum indicator designed to measure the force behind a price trend, derived from the DMI (Directional Movement Index), which comprises two distinct lines.
+DI - Positive Direction Movement Index
–DI - Negative Directional Movement Index
The ADX is computed by subtracting these two values and applying a smoothing function.
The ADX is not a tool to find trend direction but tells how strong the price trend is, using a scale that goes from Zero to 100.
Higher the indicator value the stronger the trend.
A reading registered beneath the 20 threshold generally implies that the stock market is not establishing a clear trend but is instead moving sideways within a defined range.
A price of above 20 confirms a buy or promote inventory sign and indicates a new market fashion is rising.
Readings Over 30 Point to a Strong Trend.
while ADX indicator turns down from above 30, it signifies that present day fashion is dropping strength.
ADX combined with DMI Indicator
Because the ADX does not show direction on its own, it is used with the DMI index to figure out which way the indices are going.
