About ADX EA
The ADX EA, documented at kokoshell.com and best-expert-advisors.com, is a MetaTrader 4 Expert Advisor built for trend trading using the classic Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) system. It opens a buy trade when the +DI line crosses above -DI from below while ADX trend-strength reaches a defined threshold, and a sell trade on the mirror-image -DI/+DI cross.
It supports flexible exit rules — indicator-based, time-based, or profit-based — plus advanced risk features such as drawdown protection and spread/slippage filters. Optional add-ons include a higher-timeframe Moving Average filter, grid recovery, hedge, and Martingale modes, along with day/time trading filters.
