Directional Movement Index and ADXDMI (ADX) consists of three indicators that measure a trend’s strength and direction. Three lines compose the Direction Movement Index (DMI): ADX (white/gray line), DI+ (green line), and DI- (orange line). The Average Directional Index (ADX) line shows the strength of the trend. The higher the ADX value, the stronger the trend. The ADX line is white when it has a positive slope, otherwise it is gray.
The Plus Direction Indicator (DI+) and Minus Direction Indicator (DI-) show the current price direction. When the DI+ is above DI-, the current price momentum is up. When the DI- is above DI+, the current price momentum is down.
Trend detection: When the background has a bluish color there is an upward trend, and when the background has a reddish color there is a downward trend.
Includes an information panel that shows the current value and trend of some well-known indicators.

FUERSTUses Normalized Price Oscillator and Stochastics and combines them as an ADX weighted measure.
During low trend intensity Stochastics gets higher weighted than Price Oscillator, and vice-versa in times of high trend-intensity.
RedK Trader Pressure Index (TPX v1.0) Quick Summary
---------------------
The RedK Trader Pressure Index (REDK_TPX) analyzes the changes in price bars to give the trader a clear visual insight that represents the ongoing fight between the bulls (buyers) and bears (sellers) in the market - to determine who is in control of the price action, which in turn can be helpful in a trader’s decision about how the price action may be unfolding, what type of trade and positions to take (or to close) and when is the ideal time to action.
How the TPX calculation works
---------------------------------------
The TPX uses a simple logic and that’s one of the things I like about it – there is no complex calculation or magic stuff - and the core idea makes sense to me, as well as being one of the ways I needed to analyze my price charts.
The underlying assumption is that the buyers and sellers are competing for control of the market at all time.
- if there’s more buyers than sellers in the market, and if the buyers’ (or bull) pressure is stronger (than the sellers’), they will be able pull the “price range” up – and that means that on the price chart we can expect to see an increase in value in both the “high” and the “low” of the next price bar.
- Similarly, if there’s more sellers than buyers in the market, and if the sellers’ (or bear) pressure is stronger (than the buyers’), they will be able push the “price range” down – on the price chart we can expect to see a decrease in value in both the “high” and the “low” of the next price bar.
So, we will use the change in high and low price, between 2 consecutive price bars, as a proxy for the bull and bear “pressures” – a (weighted) moving average of these “pressure” values are then calculated along with the “Net Pressure” – the final results are plotted.
The importance of the "Control Level"
-----------------------------------------------
As in similar price-action based indicators, there’s a certain threshold or “control level”, above which, the pressure becomes “dominant”
when the bull or bear pressure is above that threshold, they will dominate and control the price move – this level can be found around the 25 or 30. I have included the ability to plot and adjust that control level in the TPX’s settings – and I also show some examples in the chart above (weekly chart for MSFT)
The code is commented and the chart is annotated to explain how to “read” the TPX – and how to interpret the values on the price chart
Using the Trader Pressure Index (TPX) in trading
------------------------------------------------------------
TPX can be valuable in showing well-supported (up or down) price moves that may lead to a strong trend that we can ride (when the pressure value is above the control level) - see exampled above
TPX is also valuable in showing when there’s “lack of interest” from the buyers or the sellers (or both) – which is great in exploring chub or no-trade zones - so basically when to avoid trading.
As usual, it's always recommended to use these types of "price action insight" indicators in conjunction with other trend and momentum indicators (moving averages, MACD..etc), so the insight we gain from them can be properly placed within the broader "context" - and to receive additional confimtion signals to support the trading decision.
I will come back later to post something about how the TPX differs from my recently-posted Strength of Movement (SoM) because they wok completely differently but can be used together with great synergy – and also how the TPX compares to the classic DMI/ADX which uses a similar concept.

ADX Momentum cross + MacD + HH LL + Buy/Sell Signals and alerts Hello, This is the first indicator I have made and would like to contribute to the community.
This strategy came from trying to replicate a previous ADX Cross Indicator that I loved on MT4 which I used successfully on EUR/USD on high and low time frames. Through the process of trying to replicate it I failed, I decided to take what I had written so far and create my own ADX cross strategy using the combination of 3 ADX's, their lag. Then also using Higher highs and lower lows with the MacD to further filter the signals.
There are two buy and two sell conditions , the difference between these are just the order in which the ADX crossing determines the entry. The MacD and higher highs and lower lows are the same for filtering the signal.
You can change the look back for HH and LL look back range, along with the DI Length & ADX Smoothing for all ADX's. The lag used for either the buy or sell strategy with the Lag_Buy/Lag_Sell inputs. Lag_mid setting will affect all 4 conditions.
From testing and based on the ADX cross logic you should follow this structure when changing the inputs for:
DI Length: Lowest DI value (I.E. 1)
DI Lengtha: Middle DI value (I.E. 2)
DI Lengthb: Highest DI value (I.E. 3)
ADX Smoothing: Lowest Smoothing value (I.E. 1)
ADX Smoothinga: Middle Smoothing value (I.E. 2)
ADX Smoothingb: Highest Smoothing value (I.E. 3)
I tested this on the EUR/USD, but mainly I have been using it on BTC/USDT(binance) and BTC/USDT Perpetual futures(binance) with the 5 minute chart. I suggest playing around with the settings depending on the Symbol and timeframe you use because the default settings are what I last found to be optimal for my self on the 5min BTC/USDT Perpetual futures(binance) chart.
A good starting point I found when using the indicator on other charts is to use the below values:
DI Length: 7
DI Lengtha: 14
DI Lengthb: 21
ADX Smoothing: 7
ADX Smoothinga: 14
ADX Smoothingb: 21
If you have any questions, suggestions, or requests for this indicator feel free contact me. You can either comment on here or Message me
If you like this indicator please like and comment where you found it useful.
Stoch DMIStochastics applied to adjusted ADX to represent the trend direction. DM based sub-indicators added to hint the momentum and changes in the ADX.
MAX SAHAM ADX with DI Max Saham's ADX line with D+ & D-
ADX is used to quantify trend strength.
When the D+ (+DMI) is dominant and rising, price direction is up.
When the D- (-DMI) is dominant and rising, price direction is down. But the strength of price must also be considered.
Uses Wilder's MA to get a more accurate ADX reading as compared to SMA.
Also added the green background to indicate the trend and also dots to indicate bull and bear crossing of the DMI's
ADX of VortexHow to Trade
> Rising ADX of Vortex from 10 to 15 is trend building area to be noticed.
> If ADX of Vortex is falling but above 10 and below 15 avoid trade in such case because even if signal is generated by cross over of Vi-Plus and VI-Minus it may not give good profit.
> Once the position is taken and Price is steady but ADX of Vortex is falling then keep eye on cross over of Vi-Plus and VI-Minus to exit from trade.
> ADX rising above 15 is strong trending signal.
MrBS:Directional Movement Index [Trend Friend]I started this project with the goal of making a DMI/ADX that was easy to read at a glance. Its since become a little more then just colouring the slopes. The majority of the time, the best returns come from trending markets (THE TREND IS YOUR FRIEND... until the end) and I hope this helps people become good friends with the trends.
----- Features
- A function to change the values used for calculation from real OHLC and Heikin Ashi. This allows us to look at different chart types but see the specific ADX we choose. Originally HA values were used for calculation since it is easier to see trend on HA charts. However when testing it was not as effective as the ADX calculated from the real values on normal charts. So the default function was flipped and real OHLC values are used as default.
- Two ADX plots so we can see two different smoothness's. With a smoothing of 2, a slight slow down in PA can cause a negative slope but the smoother ADX will stay trending unless its a major change. 2nd ADX is slightly transparent.
- There is an EMA of the main ADX that can be used as a exit signal filter. If the ADX starts going down but has not crossed the EMA we would stay in a trade.
- Plots (excluding EMA) are coloured based on positive or negative slopes.
- Fibonacci numbers have been used to create different trend levels, instead of the standard 25, 50, 100.
- Alerts for every useful situation to help save time and not have to manually enter levels or crosses each time.
- In the code there are 8 EMAs and 3 ADXs but it was too much so they have been slashed out, but are fully functional if you choose to activate and use them. To reactivate the 3rd ADX delete slashes on lines 50, 65, 78, 92-95, 165. The slashed out EMAs are much more obvious and easy to reactivate.
Colours:
ADX going up = Green
ADX going down = Red
DMI+ going up = Bright Aqua
DMI+ going down = Turquoise / Dark Aqua
DMI- going up = Bright Purple
DMI- going down = Dark Purple
EMA = White (50% transparent)
If there is anything that would be useful, let me know and I will add it in. I've already got some improvements/changes planned and some of my notes can be found in the code.
There is also a strategy to go with this indicator that will be uploaded very soon.
SALEH MACD Donchian + EMA & MACD + ADXI gathered all the signals coming from the MACD & Donchian channels indicators and filtered them with EMA 200 or ADX > 25 indicators (which both of them show the trend),
and put them on the chart to show me the buy and sell signals;
the signals rules are as following:
BUY:
when we have an uptrend ( the price is above the EMA 200 or ADX > 25 ) & the macd line cross up the signal line while they are both under the 0 level of histogram it generates buy signals.
SELL:
when we have a downtrend ( the price is below the EMA 200 or ADX > 25) & the macd line cross below the signal line while they are both above the 0 level of histogram it generates sell signals.
Donchian channel works as a confirmation for the macd signal.
this signals work best at London session, you can also filter them by chandelier exit indicator.
Excellent ADXThe Average Directional movement indeX (ADX) is an indicator that helps you determine the trend direction, pivot points, and much more else! But it looks not so easy as other famous indicators. It seems strange or even terrible, but don't be afraid. Let's understand how it works and get its power into your analysis tactics.
In the beginning, imagine a drunk man goes through a ladder: step by step. Up, up, down, up, down, down, up...
How can we understand which direction he goes? Exactly! We can count the number of steps in each direction. In the above example, in the upward – 4, in the downward – 3. So, it looks like he goes in an upward direction.
The ADX indicator counts the same steps, but for price. The size of each step equals 1 ATR for "DI Length" candles. On the indicator chart, we have the green and red lines. The green line represents a number of steps upward. The red line shows one downward. When the red line upper green, then the price goes below, then the trend is directed down. Later the green line comes above the red one, and then the trend changes the direction to upward. Wow? After that, you can easy detect the trend direction on the market!
But it is still not the end. On the chart, we also have the fat blue line. This is the ADX line, and it represents the power of the trend. It is calculated from a distance between the green and red curves. The ADX line value grows if the distance is increased. If the movement is really powerful, then a number of steps into a direction much more prominent than one in an opposed direction. Then the blue line grows faster. But if the growth has stopped and the blue line turns back or already had changed self-direction, then it is a signal that the trend has ended too. It's an excellent sign to close the position (but not always). Easy? Not quite. Thresholds help you there. The indicator has two additional parameters: upper and lower thresholds to evaluate the trend-over signal strength. An u-turn of the ADX line above the upper threshold sends a strong signal. If one occurs between both thresholds, it is a bit weak signal. But if the blue line goes below the lower threshold, it looks like there is no trend, and the price goes side. We can also say that the price goes side when the ADX value gradually falls down.
The Excellent ADX indicator helps you catch pivot/pullback signals based on green, red, and blue lines. Each such signal is highlighted as a green (buy) or red (sell) dot on the plot. The size of the dot represents the strength of the signal. You can also check the position of green and red lines from each other to determine the trend direction and the place where it has been changed. The Excellent ADX indicator helps you there too. It highlights the trend direction by the background-color, so you'll never miss it! The Excellent ADX good compliance with the Price Channel indicator built for the same length. You can use them together to be on a trend wave always!

ADX Histogram with DI linesInspired by the user scarf from Tradingview. In contrast with that other indicator, this one instead of a simple moving average (SMA) for the ADX calculations, uses a running moving average (RMA) or also known as Wilder's Average. I like having a histogram for the DI lines over just having lines alone because it makes it easier to see. In addition I made it so that values less than 5 for the DI lines are colored lightly to note that the movement was less significant(might not matter but some might care about it, atleast I do). The ADX has a color fainting effect too, and when it goes above the threshold then it becomes black to note that it is trending, as the indicator suggests.
The advantages with these additions and changes are that it shows a more traditional moving average like the original author Wellers Wilder suggested and you can see the crossings and directional movement changes easier from seeing the colors on the histogram easier than you would by looking at the DI lines alone. The disadvantages are you won't be able to tell when the ADX line is above both DI lines and when the ADX then makes a decrease from there(which can sometimes show a reversal), but personally it doesn't matter too much to me and perhaps to those who care more about seeing the direction than having to focus on all those 3 lines crossing all over the place.
ADX with Color like MACD HistogramThis is a usual ADX Indicator but the colors change when the next bar falls or grows from the previous bar.
I think that the use of ADX can be maximized by seeing whether the movement is lower or higher than the previous like MACD Histogram.
The ADX indicator is very powerful for driving long-term trends and is effectively used for 4-hour or 1-hour Time Frames.
When ADX is above level 20, the color of the Bar will be blue or light blue. The blue bar means that the bar is higher than the previous bar. The light blue bar means the bar is lower than the previous one.
When ADX is below level 20, the color of the bar will be dark gray or light gray. The dark gray bar means that the bar is lower than the previous bar. The light gray bar means the bar is higher than the previous bar.
When the bar turns blue that's when we can add shares to our winning position.
When the price is above level 40, the background of the bars will be red, indicating that the price is in a very strong trend and will run out of its thrust soon. That's when we get ready to take profit, which is when the ADX Bar which is blue turns light blue.
-
FYI, I use ADX just for adding the shares to my winning position and exiting the market. I don't wait for ADX turns blue to enter the market.
LB Squeeze Momentum DivergencesThis study tries to highlight LazyBear Squeeze Momentum divergences
as they are defined by
TradingLatino TradingView user
Squeeze momentum green peaks are connected by a line
Associated prices to these green peaks are also connected
If both lines have a different slope orientation
then there is a divergence.
It only shows two last divergence lines and angles.
The original chart screenshot shows some divergence lines
on the top or main chart
these were drawn manually
because you cannot write to two different charts
from the same pine script study (Well, not in August 2020 anyways)
It's aimed at BTCUSDT pair and 4h timeframe.
HOW IT WORKS
Simple geometric mathematics are used
to calculate the two lines degrees
Then both degrees are compared
to show if both lines agree ( // or \\ )
or if they disagree ( /\ or \/ )
SETTINGS
(SQZDiver) Show degrees : Show degrees of each Squeeze Momentum Divergence
lines to the x-axis.
(SQZDiver) Show desviation labels : Whether to show
or not desviation labels for the Squeeze Momentum Divergences.
(SQZDiver) Show desviation lines : Whether to show
or not desviation lines for the Squeeze Momentum Divergences.
(ADX) Smoothing
(ADX) DI Length
(ADX) key level
(ADX) Print : Whether to show
or not scaled ADX line
(SQZMOM) BB Length
(SQZMOM) BB MultFactor
(SQZMOM) KC Length
(SQZMOM) KC MultFactor
(SQZMOM) Use TrueRange (KC)
(SQZMOM) Print : Whether to show
or not Squeeze Momentum indicator.
WARNING
Some securities and timeframes might output degrees
too next to zero.
The code might need to be tweaked to meet your needs.
USAGE
One strategy is to sell when you are in a long entry
when you find out that the price slope is upwards ( / )
while the lb smilb slope is downwards: ( \ )
E.g. You will see:
/
\
on the indicator.
Why?
Because it might signal you that the price is
going to correct downwards soon.
FEEDBACK 1
Please let me know if there is any
other strategy based on the red side of
LB Squeeze Momentum
so that I might add support for it in the future.
FEEDBACK 2
Calculating degrees in a chart
with a different x-axis scale
is a nightmare
that's why I did not a range settings
so that values next to zero are
converted into zero
and thus showing an horizontal line.
Feedback is welcome on this matter.
EXTRA 1
If you turn off showing the divergence lines
and if you turn off showing the divergence labels
you almost get what TradingLatino user uses
as its default momentum indicator.
EXTRA 2
Optionally this indicator can show you
a rescaled ADX (it only works properly on 2020 Bitcoin charts)
ABOUT COLOURS
TradingLatino user has both dark green and light green
inverted compared to this LB SQZMOM chart.

RDX ScoreModified TradingView script for @bankniftydoctor's RDX strategy. Original script idea credits to @TheProfessorDev
- I have modified the code to reflect core RDX strategy score, instead of the simplified one
- Every bar (including ones in RSI 45-55) will display its RDX score.
p.s .For the uninitiated, these number generated by this script are used for the RDX strategy devised by @bankniftydoctor. There's an anchored note at the upper right corner, which briefly summarises the RDX score & the positions to be taken accordingly.
OBV - ADX and DI+/-This is the ADX and DI+/- indicator applied to OBV!
This really clearly shows up and down, but using VOLUME! Don't ignore it, there is too much information captured in the OBV.
If you just love the ADX/DI format, it is included in a checkbox.
Want some excellent background highlighting, turn in on in a checkbox.

MTF ADX & DI - Monitoring PanelMonitoring panel showing the ADX (Average Directional Index) & DMI (Directional Movement Index) as color code for 6 different timeframes.
This gives a very easy overview on the current state of the market and if it is trending.
- ADX basically describes the strength of a Trend
- DMI give indication on the direction of the trend, usually shown as +DI and -DI
Meanings of the Colors:
ADX is below Low Threshold (no trend) : Black
ADX is above Low Threshold and DI is positive (weak bullish trend) : Light Green
ADX is above High Threshold and DI is positive (strong bullish trend) : Dark Green
ADX is above Low Threshold and DI is negative (weak bearish trend) : Light Red
ADX is above High Threshold and DI is negative (strong bearish trend) : Dark Red
- Low Threshold (default = 20) and High Threshold (default = 50) can be changed in the settings
- Timeframes can be changed, but the description labels are currently hardcoded - if you want to change it, just copy the script and change them
- Currently there are two additional timeframes commented in the code - if you want to use them, just copy the script and uncomment them
Have fun and as always I am open for constructive feedback.
Cheers!
ADX TriggerThis script fires off a buy alert when the ADX is rising and above a user-defined value (default 25). It fires off a sell signal when ADX starts sloping downward. The lookback period to determine if it is sloping up/down (in bars) is also configurable by the user. The plot highlights green when there is a "go" signal.

DMA: ADX L30A modified version of the ADX indicator
Indicator average directional movement ( ADX ) helps traders determine the strength of the trend, not its actual direction. It can be used to determine whether changes in the market or starts a new trend. It refers to the average directional movement Index (DMI), and, in fact, included DMI ADX line . The oscillator ranges from 0 to 100, where high values noted a strong trend and low readings indicate a weak trend. It is often combined with directional indicators. The indicator was developed by Welles Wilder, who has created several leading trading indicators.
Disconnected the lines DI and set the horizontal level 30

Модифицированная версия индикатора ADX .
Индикатор среднего направленного движения ( ADX ) помогает трейдерам определить силу тренда, а не его фактическое направление. Его можно использовать, чтобы выяснить, меняется ли рынок, или начинается новый тренд. Он относится к Индексу направленного движения (DMI) и, фактически, в DMI включена линия ADX . Осциллятор колеблется от 0 до 100, где высокие показания отмечают сильный тренд, а низкие показания указывают на слабый тренд. Он часто комбинируется с направленными индикаторами. Индикатор был разработан Уэллсом Уайлдером, который создал несколько ведущих торговых индикаторов.
Отключены линии DI и установлен горизонтальный уровень на значении 30
