Dictionary : Average Directional Index - ADX

An indicator used in technical analysis to determine the strength of a prevailing trend. The ADX is measured on a scale between 0 and 100. Readings below 20 are used to indicate a weak trend, while readings over 40 indicate a strong trend.

ADX is not used to determine the direction of a particular trend, but only to gauge its strength.
