How to Calculate?
1) Calculate Today's High - Yesterday's High say A
2) Calculate Today's Low - Yesterday's Low say B
3) TempDM+ = A if A>0 otherwise it's 0
4) TempDM- = B if B>0 otherwise it's 0
5) Calculate EMA(14) of A say AA
6) Calculate EMA(14) of B say BB
7) Calcu8late Today's High - Today's Low say X
8) Calculate Today's High - Yesterday's Close say Y
9) Calculate Yesterday's Close - Today's Low say Z
10) TR = Max of( X, Y, Z )
11) Calculate EMA(14) of TR say ETR
12) DM+ = (AA/ETR)*100
13) DM- = (BB/ETR)*100
14) DMI = ((DM+ - DM-)/(DM+ + DM-))*100
15) ADX = EMA(14) of DMI
Note : Here EMA you have to calculate by using
Yesterday EMA(14) - Yesterday EMA(14)/14 + Today's TR or Today's DM+ or Today's DM-
Stock investing using Average Directional Movement Index (ADX):
The Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) generates
buy signals when DM+
cross above DM- and ADX near 20 and start to move upward, and parabolic SAR give a
buy signal. At this condition you can built long position considering Parabolic point
as a stop loss. This condition of Average Directional Movement Index (ADX)
represents
bullish momentum is strengthening. Using ADX you can manage your
portfolio stock investing and 401k investment. ADX with breakout stocks is a real
good combination of technical analysis to get best return on your investment. You
can use small time frame Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) for stock trading
and day trading.
The Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) gives
sell signal when DM-
cross above DM+ and ADX near 20 and start to move upward, and parabolic SAR give a
sell signal. At this condition you can built short position considering Parabolic point
as a stop loss. This condition of Average Directional Movement Index (ADX)
represents
bearish momentum is strengthening.
To get good result with Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) we need to use it with
other technical indicators like
Moving Average (MA)
|
On Balance Volume (OBV)
|
Price Rate Of Change (ROC)
|
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
|
Stochastic Oscillator (STO)
|
Commodity Channel Index (CCI)
|
Chaikin Money Flow oscillator (CMF).
When we use two or three technical indicators and in case of positive divergence and
negative divergence it giving real good result, only you need to change time span and
find out which is a better pair for you.
