Overview

DMI measures directional price movements by computing the positive directional indicator (+DI), negative directional indicator (-DI), and the smoothed ADX trend strength line using Wilder's moving average. Users can configure the DI calculation length and the ADX smoothing period. The script only plots the three lines and does not provide built-in trading signals, reference levels, or alerts.

Third-party code. ForexR did not write, test or endorse this script, and the summary above was generated automatically from its code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints. Check it in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account before you rely on it.
