ADX/DIs with different inputs?

[dsraider]

I've searched high and low but could not find an indicator that lets you use different lengths for DIs as you do with the ADX. Does it already exist? (For anyone reading this, I highly suggest 13/8 settings).

Thanks,

Dave, not sure I follow, couldn't you load the same indicator two times but with different input lengths entered?

Hi Bertrand,

I was hoping to have all three lines in the same box since I need to see how they interact with one another. I've found from other software that an 8 ADX setting works really well with 13 for the DIs.

Thanks again.

Just add the indicator two times with your inputs and select to plot them all in the same subpanel, then you should see them scaled correctly to see them interacting with eachother.

Thanks

The built-in DM indicator plots ADX and both DI lines, in the same panel.

I can't seem to find the option to place them in the same panel. Also, since ADX/DMI isn't the only indicator I use, wouldn't that place everything in the same box? If so, I guess I have some ninjascript learning to do...

Thanks.

Hey VTrader,

That's the one I'm currently using but it only allows for you to set both the DIs and the ADX to the same time period. I prefer using 13 for DIs and 8 for ADX but in the same box.

Thanks.

Here ya go dsraider, see if this is what you're looking for. I did a quick modification of the built-in DM indicator.

Bertrand,

I figured out what you meant. Thanks for your very quick response. VTrader, thanks to you as well. All is well now. If anyone wants directions, please feel free to ask me.

VTrader!

That was extremely kind of you. Thanks! Would love to be able to return the favor but I only speak thinkscript (sorry, Bertrand). If you use the DM, hopefully you'll like these settings better.

Good luck out there...
