[amibroker] Need advice: How to determine a trend?

["Clement Chin" <clement@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I would appreciate if you can comment on how to determine a trend is up or
down or sideway?

I have checked different resources and I learn some of the possible ways to
determine an up trend...

ADX(20)>30;
ADX(20)>30 AND PDI(10)>MDI(10);
C>MA(C,10) AND C>MA(C,20) AND MA(C,20)>MA(C,50);
C>MA(C,50) AND C>MA(C,200);
C>MA(C,10) AND C>MA(C,20);
(ADX(10)+ADX(20))/2>=30 AND PDI(10)+PDI(20)>=MDI(10)+MDI(20);

I know this may be a complicated question without a perfect answer. I am
learning to determine a trend so I can buy ONLY when a trend if moving up.

Any input is very much appreciated.

Clement
