Rainbow is much the same.  All these multiple MA indicators show you
"even stacking" (trend is strong) and "inflections" (trend is changing).
I find ADX, +DI, -DI setup is very slow.  In particular once it gets going
it takes an awful lot of choppiness to convince it that there really isn't a
trend there after all.  Depends what you are looking for.  If I'm in a position
I take more notice of ADX, if I'm looking for an entry I take more notice of
AMA. Wilder has quite a few rules regarding ADX that don't seem to work for
me. Maybe someone who knows more about ADX would like to tell us more.
