1. The ADX Break and Ascending Triangles Your Key to Being Somebody, Instead of Being Just a Bum

2. What is the ADX line?
An ADX line measures the strength (not the direction) of a trend.
An ADX above 40 shows a strong trend. But the higher it gets above 40, the more likely it will reverse.
ADX’s above 60 are more rare, but are beautiful things!
Look for ADX breaks above 40.

3. What is an ADX Break? An ADX break is a pattern identified by:
A falling (or rising) stock price.
Increasing sell (or buy) volume.
An ADX that peaks and “breaks,” preferably above 40.
Capitulation signs.
Reversing of the stock price.
Reversing volume (sell to buy, or buy to sell).

6. Reversal Candles

7. Capilulation Signs
In an ADX break pattern, one will often see increasing red blow-off candles, as the last of the sellers get out of a stock.
The last candle at the bottom may be a change-up, doji, hammer, double bar, bullish engulfing, long red candle with a long buying tail.

8. Capitulation Candles

9. WAYS to Play the ADX BREAK
When up a decent amount, place tighter stop on half and place stop at break even on the rest.
Or when up a decent amount, tighten stop on half and leave stop at original place to leave more wiggle room.
Let the rest ride and watch for price and market cooperation.
Sell or tighten stops “into shape.”

10. It’s More than Just a High ADX
Watch for fake-outs.
Look for increasing sell volume, then buy volume, and a defined ADX break.

13. The Safest ADX Breaks
The safest ADX breaks occur when the market is sideways or going up, and the price falls to a 50 or 200 moving average on the daily chart.
If the market is also failing hard, and does not rebound, the ADX break may be short lived or fail.
