ADX Dashboard (MT4 & MT5)

ADX Dashboard MT4
ADX Dashboard MT5

This indicator is used to determine the trend and its strength. The direction of the price is shown by the +DI and -DI values, and the ADX value shows the strength of the trend. If +DI is above -DI, then the market is in an uptrend, if on the contrary, it is a downtrend. If ADX is below 20, then there is no definite direction. As soon as the indicator breaks this level, a medium-strength trend begins. Values above 40 indicate a strong trend (a downtrend or an uptrend).

Multicurrency and multitimeframe modification of the Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) indicator. You can specify any desired currencies and timeframes in the parameters. Also, the indicator can send notifications when the trend strength levels are crossed, and when the +DI and -DI lines are crossed. By clicking on a cell with a period, this symbol and period will be opened. This is MTF Scanner.

Similar to the Currency Strength Meter (CSM), the Dashboard can automatically select pairs that contain a specified currency, or those pairs that have that currency as their base currency. The indicator searches for Currency in all pairs that are specified in the “Set of Pairs”; other pairs are ignored. And based on these pairs, the total ADX for this currency is calculated. And you can see how strong or weak that currency is.

The key to hide the dashboard from the chart is "D" by default.

You can export data from ADX Dashboard to a CSV file. The file will be saved to the terminal folder: \MQL4\Files or \MQL5\Files.
The data will be recorded according to the timer - "Refresh dashboard every (seconds)".
To update the saved file when opened in Excel, you need to open it via "Data tab" - "Get External Data From Text". Then the file will be updated by the dashboard and in Excel.
