Ah, yes.  That nagging question of how to get on
board just a little bit earlier!  Especially in
situations where ADX can be painfully slow, as

Do you just eyeball it?  or use the simple DI
(pretty frenetic)?  One could even slap an ROC on
the difference, I suppose.

Also, has it been your observation that once ADX
does get moving, contractions in the difference
between +DI and -DI might be good places to either
add on or take money off the table - depending on
your expectations?
