ADX-Weighted Moving Average for Flat-Market Detection and Support Levels
Summary
ADXVMA is described as a moving average whose calculation weights depend on ADX values. This makes the average responsive to a measure of trend strength rather than relying only on a conventional fixed weighting scheme. The description also notes that the indicator supports an extended set of price inputs.
The author says the average can remain flat for extended periods, which may help identify range-bound market phases, and suggests it can also serve as a possible support or resistance reference. These are qualitative claims: the document includes no formula, parameter guidance, chart examples, backtest, or evidence comparing it with other averages. A flat reading or apparent price level should therefore be treated as an indicator interpretation, not a validated trading signal.
Key ideas
- ADXVMA uses ADX values to determine the weights in its moving-average calculation.
- Extended flat sections are presented as a way to identify non-trending market phases.
- The average may also be used as a potential support or resistance reference.
- The description provides no formula, performance data, or validation of these uses.
