Summary
The Advanced ADX Oscillator is most useful in trending markets, fluctuating between levels 0 and 100. When the ADX oscillator is below the 25 level, it indicates a weak trend. When it moves above the 25 level, it signals a strong trend to the trader.
How can the Advanced ADX Indicator be used to identify trends?
When the ADX value is above 25, it indicates the presence of a strong trend in the market. If the ADX value is below 20, it indicates a non-trending or weak trend market. Values between 20 and 25 usually indicate the beginning or end of a trend.
How can the +DI and -DI signals be used in the Advanced ADX Indicator?
A buy signal is generated when the +DI crosses above the -DI. Similarly, a sell signal is generated when the -DI crosses above the +DI. These signals are usually confirmed with the ADX value to assess the strength of the trend.
