[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: insert +/-DI ADX indicator on my custom formula



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

The call for the formula is actually

DX(Periods)

for the directional movement indicator.

If you are using the +/-DI it would be

PDI(periods)
or 
MDI(periods)

unless you are using a custom indicator in which case you would need 
to use the exact spelling. To do this when you are asked for the 
formula click on the FUNCTION icon to expose the available indicators 
and the appropriate call fml for it. 

The users manual explains this in detail. If you don't have a copy 
check the group files section for an available pdf file.

Hope this helps,

Preston
