ZeroLag ema + adx = true — Indicator by TheYangGuizi

trend trendtrading adx ema nolag

Combined LazyBears ZeroLag EMA and CapnOscars moving average ADX . Here's the result.

I figured it could be used as a trend trendtrading system,
ADX red + ema cross downards = short.
ADX green + ema cross up = long.
ADX black + ema cross = no trade
Or something along those line. A way filter out whipsaws.
This is just something I threw together in 5 min, so din't go all in tho. Haven't had time to test.
2 ADX
3 Z-EMAs
Colors/settings can be customized.
