ADX – Average Directional Index (FX Replay User Guide)
O ADX ajuda a avaliar a força da tendência, para que você saiba quando se inclinar para as negociações de momentum e quando evitar mercados instáveis e laterais.
O que ele faz
Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr., the ADX consists of three key components:
- ADX Line: Measures overall trend strength
- +DI Line: Bullish pressure
- –DI Line: Bearish pressure
All values are plotted between 0 and 100 (typically over a 14-period range).
Como usá-lo no FX Replay
Força da tendência
ADX > 25 → Trending market
ADX < 25 → Ranging or weak trend
The higher the ADX, the stronger the trend (regardless of direction).
Direção da tendência
+DI above –DI → Bullish bias
–DI above +DI → Bearish bias
Momentum Shifts
If ADX is rising and +DI is above –DI → strong bullish trend
If ADX is rising and –DI is above +DI → strong bearish trend
If ADX is falling → trend may be losing steam
Trading with ADX on FX Replay
- Confirm Setups: Use ADX to validate breakouts or trend-continuation plays. If ADX is climbing past 25, momentum is building.
- Avoid Chop: If ADX is flat and under 20–25, stay out or pivot to range strategies.
- Trend Reversal Clues: Watch for +DI/–DI crossovers with ADX beginning to rise — could signal a new trend forming.
- Pair It Up: Combine ADX with structure (support/resistance) or a moving average for more precise entries and exits.
