Re: Nasdaq ready to MOVE

Remember, the ADX does not indicate which direction the move will be.  The move
could be down--the first sign of that would be a move back into the trading
range.  On a weekly scale, the ADX is saying--whichever direction the move is,
there is pent-up energy to carry it a long way.  This lack of objectivity is why
I trade with mechanical models.
