ADX Buy/Sell Cross Signals Metatrader 4 Forex Indicator

The ADX Buy/Sell Cross Signals indicator for the MT4 platform generates easy to read forex signals based on the crossover of DI- and DI+.

A blue arrow (buy) occurs when DI+ crosses above DI- from below. This creates a bullish ADX trend.

A red arrow (sell) occurs when DI- crosses above DI+ from below. This creates a bearish ADX trend.

This indicator works well in trending markets but will fail in range-bound markets (false signals).

Therefore, use it in agreement with a trend following indicator such as the 75 period EMA or 100 period SMA.

When price is positioned above the trend following indicator line, only trade the blue ADX buy arrows.

When price is positioned below the trend following indicator line, only trade the red ADX sell arrows.

The default ADX crosses period is set to 14 but can be changed to whatever value you need.

Experiment with this powerful setting.
