SADX+DI - Smoothed Average Directional Index by CrypTaux

Jun 15, 2021

This script is based on ADX/DI and I use it to enter when trend is in early stage, then ride it & exit at the right time (that's the theory)

ADX is shown as histogram :
- light silver bars = price is under thresold but still no trend, be patient.
- strong gray bars = prepare to enter the trade soon
- blue bars = price momentum so ride the trend
- yellow bars = do not trade (price reverts or consolidates)

Background color/bottom area based on DI+/DI- :
- green = uptrend
- red = downtrend

Top pink triangles appears when ADX is relatively low based on "lookback" history (not based on previous static threshold) so a new trend may happens so stay alerts.

- Prepare for enter when bars turn dark gray and/or pink triangles appears.
- Enter position as soon as you see blue bar (Long or Short as indicated by the area color)
- and Exit on first yellow bar.

Quite simple, works on multiple HTF/LTF and might be used with graphical analysis to find best opportunities.
Enjoy :)
