ADX Forex Trading Strategy With

14 EMA

The ADX Forex Trading Strategy is based on the forex

indicator called the Average Directional Index (ADX).

This forex trading strategy requires the following:

Timeframes: use 5 min and above

Currency Pair: Any

Indcators: ADX & 14 EMA

Here’s what you should know about the Average Directional

Index Indicator:

The ADX indicator is used to measures the strength of a

trend and this can be useful to determine if a trend is weak
or strong.

ADX indicator will not tell you if the trend is up or down-it

simply indicates the strength of the current trend regardless
of whether it is up or down.

When ADX indicator has High readings, it indicate a strong

trend and low ADX readings indicate a weak trend.

When the ADX indicator is showing a low reading then a

trading range (or congestion) is likely to develop therefore
you should avoid trading currency pairs with low ADX
readings.

Trade only currency pairs that have high readings.

On some charting packages there are two other lines on the

chart, +DI and -DI (the DI part stands for Directional
Indicator). Ignore these lines. Trying to trade according to
these two lines is your surest way to lose money-and its
even caused more confusion.

The only thing that you should be focused with is the ADX
indicator itself. Here’s a chart to make you understand
better:

Refer to the chart above with the following bullet points

below:

In the chart above, the ADX indicator is the blue line .

There are also two other lines, the +DI (dotted green) and
-DI (dotted white), you should ignore these.

Now, note in the chart above that there is an area in the

brown rectangle box…This shows how the ADX indicator
identifies trading ranges and times when the market is not
trending.

The ADX is showing a low reading and notice that the

currency pair is trending sideways.

Now look at what happens when the ADX indicator gets into
higher territory, generally above 25. A strong trend
develops!

Summary: If you are looking to trade the ADX indicator,

then trade when the ADX indicator is above 25.

HOW TO USE THE ADX INDICATOR SCALE

To setup the ADX scale, follow the instructions shown on

the chart shown below:

You will have a box pop up and then you can add ADX scale
values like 25 as shown on the previous chart above.
If ADX is between 0 and 25 then the currency pair in a
trading range. It is likely just chopping around sideways.
Avoid Trading these.

Once ADX gets above 25 then you will begin to see the
beginning of a trend. Big moves (up or down) tend to
happen when ADX is right around this number.

When the ADX indicator gets above 30 then you are staring
at a currency pair that is in a strong trend! You should be
looking to trade these pairs when this happens.

Note:You won’t see very many currency pairs with the ADX
above 50. Once it gets that high, you start to see trends
coming to an end and trading ranges developing again.
