Phsst, my guess is that the IRRATIONALLY  EXUBERANT BULL market  that 
happened in the  90's was the reason for your success with ADX+-DI.  Ron D

Sorry that I can't see your attachment, but the AB backtester is
really straightforward where ADX and +-DI are concerned, so you should
be able to quickly find your own answers.

My own experience with ADX and +-DI was that I had a good trading
system using them from '95 to '00 and then they lost their
usefulness... perhaps I did not take the proper effort to find
adaptations of ADX +-DI to other trading systems after early '00.

I never used ADX +-DI for exits... only entries.
