The Average Directional Index (ADX), invented by J. Welles Wilder is referred to as an oscillator technical analysis indicator. ADX fluctuates between 0 and 100. Readings below 20 show a weak trend while above 40, show a strong trend.

Indicator readings above 85 are rare and show a very strong up or down trend in the market. Please note: ADX does not give you an indication about the trend (up or down), it gauges the strength of the currency trend.
