ADX Trends: Stong and Weak Trends in Trading →

ADX Review: Strong and Weak Moves

July 6th, 2008 | Forex Trading

When you’re trading Forex markets, depending on your trading system, you might have to be able to track strength and weakness situations. The ADX, Average Directional Index, is a great indicator for tracking that strength and weakness on one chart.

Here is a video on ADX Moves in a forex market…

When the market you’re watching is moving higher, and the ADX is rising to the upward motion, that upward motion is strong. If the ADX is falling, then that upward motion is weak.

When the market you’re watching is moving lower, and the ADX is rising to the downward motion, that downward motion is strong. If the ADX is falling, then that downward motion is weak.

You’ll see on the next video how to use the ADX to track trend direction on a chart.

If you have any questions or comments, please leave them. I’ll answer or respond as quickly as I can.

Have a fantastic trading day! :)
