Hi, I’m new in the ProRealCode. I’m looking for the Directional Movement formula to Prorealotime. If someone can help me.. Alessandro. Buongiorno, sono appena iscritto a ProRealCode sto cercando la formula per prorealtime del Directional Movment, purtroppo non la riesco a reperire in rete. Se qualcuno può darmi indicazioni.. grazie

Oh i’m sorry Alex, I didn’t see your message earlier. I’ll code it and post it here, no worry.

Hello Alex,

At least, here is the code of DMI (which is part of ADX):
```
REM Let's compute +DM & -DM

plusDM = max(high-high[1], 0)
minusDM = max(low[1]-low, 0)

IF plusDM > minusDM THEN
minusDM = 0
ENDIF

IF plusDM < minusDM THEN
plusDM = 0
ENDIF

IF plusDM = minusDM THEN
plusDM = 0
minusDM = 0
ENDIF

REM Let's compute the directional indicators

plusDI = wilderAverage[p](plusDM)
minusDI = wilderAverage[p](minusDM)

REM Let's compute the ADX indicator

DX = ABS(plusDI - minusDI) / (plusDI + minusDI) * 100
myADX = wilderAverage[p](DX)

RETURN  myADX as "ADX", 25
```
This code is already embedded into the platform (ADX code example). Hope it helps.

What do you want to get exactly? :
1. the ADX value from 7000 periods ago?
2. the ADX calculated within 7000 bars?

Hello Nicolás. I need Adx calculated within 7000 bars

Regards

Just add :
```
p = 7000
```
At the top of the code and verify you have at least 7000 bars already loaded to calculate the ADX indicator:
```
if barindex>p then 

// all codes

endif
```
Please find below the whole code modified:
```
p = 7000 //calculation periods 

if barindex>p then  
REM Let's compute +DM & -DM

plusDM = max(high-high[1], 0)
minusDM = max(low[1]-low, 0)

IF plusDM > minusDM THEN
minusDM = 0
ENDIF

IF plusDM < minusDM THEN
plusDM = 0
ENDIF

IF plusDM = minusDM THEN
plusDM = 0
minusDM = 0
ENDIF

REM Let's compute the directional indicators

plusDI = wilderAverage[p](plusDM)
minusDI = wilderAverage[p](minusDM)

REM Let's compute the ADX indicator

DX = ABS(plusDI - minusDI) / (plusDI + minusDI) * 100
myADX = wilderAverage[p](DX)
endif

RETURN  myADX as "ADX", 25
```
Of course you’ll need to have at least 7000+ units (candlesticks) displayed on your chart. Let me know if it’s ok.

Oh!!!, It works absolutely perfect. Thank you very much for your support.

I have find that the original ADX[7000] stop with a dax 5 mm strategy, but running your code works fine.

Thank you again.

Eduardo.
