ADX Demarker Experimental System

Was scrolling through some systems and tinkered around with one of them and feel I may have something potentially viable. The system I looked at was '5min Bollinger breakout system' here. I played around a bit and this is what I've come up with.

Open a 1 hour chart of EUR/USD or GBP/USD.
Add ADX (14) to Typical Price and add a level of 30.
Add Demarker (14) with levels of 0.3 and 0.7.
Optional - Add ATR (14).

Buy setup: wait for ADX to cross above 30 on close of last bar, Demarker must be above 0.7. If Demarker is already above 0.7 then buy. If Demarker is below 0.7, wait for it to cross above 0.7 before buying.

Sell setup: wait for ADX to cross above 30 on close of last bar. Demarker must be below 0.3. If Demarker is aleady below 0.3 then sell. If Demarker is above 0.3, wait for it to cross below 0.3 before buying.

SL and TP - Im still working on this aspect but using 1 x ATR (14) appears to work well.

I welcome any constructive ideas. Have not traded this live.

honesty is everything, congrats and i hope all threads was or will be like this
the idea of the thread is sharing and aiding on developing a system without having any fantasy line like " 90% win ratio, successful from 13 years etc... "

cheers and good luck

Do you think that using ADX as the core of the system will keep it from getting in trouble with rangebound situations?

good strat

i would use the ATR as an Exit (TP and SL). for a buy, if price is above open price + atr, then exit in profit.

thanks for the kind words

actually no because the ADX is one of 2 criteria for a trade to be entered. The Demarker must also have crossed or wait for it to cross so I think this helps it not get caught in rangebound trades.

thanks
