ADX Crossover 0

[ninjamouse]

Hi there

Wonder if you can help me, it really is a simple strategy:

if ADX is above 25 (or any number) go long, if under go short

How does one do this?

Thanks

ninjamouse, not sure if this is what you had mind as the ADX is a trendstrength indicator, it does not give directional pointers, for this you want to use the DI + - components of the ADX...

You can use the Strategy wizard we have to set this up -

thank you for replying to me.

Even if its a Momentum indicator, I guess all I want is when Momentum goes above the 0 line go long else short. It can be any indicator where if it goes over the 0 line go long else short.

Hope this makes sense?

Thanks again

Sure, it wasn't my intention to not have you fool around with any indicators or setups you would consider worthy to your trading.

For this you could just use the default Momentum indicator on the left side in the condition builder while comparing it to a numerical value of 0 on the right side...then set your actions in the lower portion of the wizard on this.
