Trading Reference Links

If you want the bsis of how to calculate directional movement you will
need to get the book on it
"The Directional Movement System helps determine if a security is
"trending." It was developed by Welles Wilder and is explained in his
book, New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems."

If you just want how to call it up in AB see the help screens - List
of AFL Functions
ADX, PDI, MDI are the 3 lines
