I've never used the Macd and ADX. Just watch the moving averages on 5 day intra-dar. I'm pretty simple that way.........lol Everybody has their own indicators they prefer and I really think it's how our brains connect the information, mine doesn't use all those different indicators because to many confuses me so I've found what's simple at a glance to work for me. I have ADD so less is more for me cause the more indicators I use the more I over analysis and waste my time trying to connect them all. Make sense?
