When you’re trading Forex, strength and weakness agreements have a tendency to come in handy. One of my favorite indicators for tracking strength and weakness patterns is the ADX. Today, we’ll cover ADX trends and their respective strengths and weaknesses, and an example of ADX weakness in time, on consecutive charts.

That’s some of what’s on today’s video on ADX Trends:

So the first thing you need to have a trend showing on the ADX is for there to be strength showing on a move. If the market moves lower and the ADX increases, that’s a stong move down, and the first step needed to have an ADX trend.

The second component needed is for the market to retrace some of the strong move, and have the ADX decrease, saying that there’s weakness in the counter-strength direction. So if the market moves lower and the ADX increases showing strength, then the market moves higher with the ADX decreasing, that’s the second part of having an ADX trend.

The third and final component is for the market to move farther in the direction of the prior strength.
Then there is an ADX trend on that chart, and that trend is either strong or weak.

In a strong trend, the ADX moves higher than it was at the end of the strong move in the same direction. In a weak trend, the ADX does not move higher than it was at the end of the strong move in the same direction.

Example: The market moves down, the ADX increases - shows strength in moving lower.
The market then moves higher, and the ADX decreases - shows weakness in moving higher.
The market then moves farther down than it was before the retracement up began.

That’s an ADX trend, and it is either strong (if the ADX is also higher than it was as the market moved farther), or weak (if the ADX does not move higher than it was as the market moved farther).

That’s it on the ADX trends. If you have any questions or comments, please leave them and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Have a tremendously successful trading day!

Welcome to Domination Trading! This site will not only teach you about being a great currency trader, but if you’re bright enough, pretty much how to dominate the Forex market of your choice.

What is planned for this site is nothing short of ground-breaking, and could change the face of Forex trading for a long time to come. The principles that will be taught by me (and hopefully others will contribute, too) are the foundation of all successful trading, and will be built upon into anything you want for yourself.

With all of the so-called “trading systems” out there, and I’ve personally bought, studied and tested over 250 of them in the past 14 years, only two were actually complete trading systems. Two out of over 250 - which is less than 1%. Well, that isn’t right.

The basic philosophy, the foundational philosophy, to the forex trading systems coming, all start with basic risk, money and profit management. That IS the foundation of all great trading. And the discipline to take the required actions when told to by the system that you’re using.

That boils down to trading system management. A lot more of that is forthcoming. I beg you to ask me questions so I can make you videos, write more content that you want to read, and direct you to becoming the best trader you can possibly become. There’s a lot involved. There’s a lot to learn. There’s a lot to know about currency trading in the Forex markets.

Let’s get a good start tomorrow. So register, comment, and tell people about this site… More is on the way.
