forex4all Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 ADX PRO SYSTEM The system started with just the Moving Average (MA) indicators and following price action. I added other indicators to help hedge my trading by showing me when a possible trend reversal or a breakout was going to occur. After much testing, I found success by keeping it simple. I paired up EMA with ADX. The system works on any pair and time frame (TF) but for this submission, I have focused on EURUSD / M15. The M15 TF provided more trading opportunities than a longer TF. It was also less volatile than the shorter TFs. The system uses EMA with a period of 9. I wanted a MA that would be more responsive to recent price action. The two directional indicators (DI+ & DI-) of ADX are used in conjunction with EMA to establish your Entry and Exit points. http://www.forex4all365.com/uploads/1/2/9/1/12915563/483131_orig.jpg Chart Setup Chart: EURUSD TF: 15 minute Indicators: EMA9, ADX14, ATR14 Set a level of 20 on ADX14 Entry Rules Long Entry: Price is coming up from below EMA9.
