ADX Indicator
Utilize the ADX indicator to pinpoint optimal buying and selling opportunities. The ADX quantifies trend strength, enabling Gunbot to capitalize on powerful uptrends for purchasing and potent downtrends for selling. Gunbot incorporates ADX in conjunction with the Directional Index.
The ADX is a widely used technical analysis instrument that helps traders recognize market trends. It is derived from a series of calculations based on price movement highs and lows over a predetermined time frame. Generally, an ADX value above 25 signifies a robust trend, while a value below 20 implies a weak trend. Combining the ADX with other indicators can validate trading signals and support traders in making well-informed choices.
