ADX Trend

This is one of my favourite indicators, along with ChiOsc and CMF. It's a trend indicator, and I rely on it fully.

From StockCharts....

"ADX is an oscillator that fluctuates between 0 and 100. Even though the scale is from 0 to 100, readings above 60 are relatively rare. Low readings, below 20, indicate a weak trend and high readings, above 40, indicate a strong trend. The indicator does not grade the trend as bullish or bearish, but merely assesses the strength of the current trend. A reading above 40 can indicate a strong downtrend as well as a strong uptrend."

Worth noting is when the Trend is strong but the Green ADI line is travelling underneath, slips down below, the ADX line, signalling possible weakness ahead. I just love this indicator.

A good example of ADX working, and an overheated leading indicator system, including an RSI+70 run, is demonstrated below by the guys who make the xBOX for our games to go in....
