Based on the ADX Gapper strategy described in the book Street Smarts, it looks to exploit retracement to a prevailing trend when there has been a gap away from the trend, giving you multiple potential entries. It uses the ADX to determine a trend and detects when there is a gap to signal an entry day where:
You would enter short if the DI-(red line) > DI+ (green...
We display here the ADX has a colored histogram, which is
- green when ADX and DI+ are higher then DI-, while the ADX is increasing, meaning that we are in a potential uptrend--> we should rather be long (only buy if you have other concordant signals !)
- red when ADX and DI- are higher then DI+, while the ADX is increasing, meaning that we are in a potential...

This is the standard ADX & DI indicator, but combined in a single line, changing color when a trend changes and changing value when the trend is strong.
This Adx +-Di is just a complete version of what the ADX is supposed to signal.
So you have:
15 (contraction), 20 (threshold), 30 (expansion), 40 (resistance) levels.
Below 20 the price is not trending
Above 30 the price is trending
Below 15 price has been in contraction for too long
Between 20 and 30 price is in a "transition zone".
I finally added a...
This bad boy shows the same info as a normal ADX & DI but I've endeavoured to remove a lot of the confusion. I also added red/green colour gradients to show how much ADX is trending, the darker the colour, the stronger the trend. This should help to avoid the upsidedowniness and confusion I've always found with the original. I made this a while ago and have made a...
An EMA is applied to the ADX in order to catch the exhaustion of a trend (i.e. ADX line crossunder EMAADX line) or the possible formation of a new one. In the first case, we would wait a confirmation signal, which happens when the crossunder has a value greater then 50. A new trend is created when the difference between the ADX and the EMAADX is positive, with ADX...
A simple modification of the built-in "Average Directional Index":
To identify wether there is an uptrend or a downtrend, the function color is conditional:
no trend: black
small uptrend (weak threshold): light green
big uptrend (strong threshold): green
small downtrend (weak threshold): light red
big downtrend (strong threshold): red
Edit of the popular script by @TraderR0BERT
New features:
- horizontal colored areas, indication weak/medium/strong trend
- vertical bars, signaling trend/momentum changes
- DI+ vs DI- contraction/expansion histogram (to measure the DI volatility)
The indicator gives a multiplication of ADX and the DI+ and DI-values, color coded for bullish or bearish momentum
the indicator was optimised for use with HA-candles, but works with regular candles as well
and shows general market direction en divergence in a simpler visual way than the normal ADX-DI lines
a threshold mask can be shown or omitted as...
Version 2 added support for MTF, to see the trend direction on the lower or higher timeframe.
As an example to see the difference, the indicator is added three times, one time for the current TF, one set at the higher and one at the lower TF.
Cudo's to Chris Moody for the MTF-switching-code!!

So... the popular version of "ADX and DI" shown on tradingview by masanakamura uses some wacky and incorrect formula for DI and uses SMA instead of the Wilder's MA that ADX/DI is supposed to use, and doesn't give the correct ADX and DI values. The Tradingview "Average Directional Index" uses the correct calculation but doesn't show DI+ and DI-. So, here it is with...
