Average Directional Index (ADX)

What Does Average Directional Index (ADX) Mean?

The Average Directional Movement Index is used in technical analysis as an objective value for the strength of trend; it is nondirectional so that it will quantify trend strength whether it is up or down. ADX usually is plotted in a chart window along with two lines to create one indicator; it is derived from the relationship of the lines.
