Try this one. It changes color with each change in direction of the ADX.

It's helpful over the regular run-of-the-mill ADX / DM. I've always liked DM, but found it confusing. I don't relate too well to indicators that DECLINE while price is RISING and vice-versa. Confuses me. Sort of like patting your head, while rubbing your tummy, while chewing gum, while walking backwards. Good luck with that! I never have been able to do that. Brain's not wired that way. This, at least, sorts out the rising / falling of the strength of the trend. Just wanted to express my appreciation.

Hello,

I have been using the ADX multi-color indicator for some time, but when I switched to NT 7, the ADX would no longer plot correctly when it changes color. It seems that when the ADX turns down and changes color, it "breaks" and does not always connect to the down color. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. If I refresh the screen, then the plot shows up correctly. I have attached the indicator.

Is it possible for someone to code this to work with NT 7? I understand any multi-color indicators require recoding in order to plot correctly.

Thank you.
