What about comparing the range of the last x bars to the range of x bars at some point in the past, based on a percentage of the stock price? If the average weekly range for some period in the past was 30% of the stock price and now the average weekly range is only 5% then you might want to stop trading it for awhile.

The lag on the ADX may not matter. It could be used to screen, for instance, for stocks that remain above say 30 on a daily basis. This would indicate some sort of trendiness. Jonathan

Cat, No such thing as a wimp in this market. I'm staying short as it feels like another "Drift Until They Drop Day". Just shorted AFCI @ 57 9/16. ...Not on watch list and not a BTT-MAX, but CEO just on tube pumping it. Chart looks weak. Time will tell. The MACD will help to do some filtering on the 60M chart. Good luck today. Robert
