  Lacric, What is your trigger for entry and your trigger for exit?
 
 What timeframe do you use to trade this filter? Thank you for posting this filter?

  I use this filter with a 5 minute chart , also look at a daily and look left just to identify where the resistance is.  On the 5 the trigger comes when 5 sma crosses above 8 sma, I like a sharp angle and separation between the 2 averages. and a sharp up angle on the ADX. I have several screen shots of breaks out using this filter, will be glad to send those to you.  The candlesticks will start to pull back at or below the 5 sma, and that triggers sale for me.  I use this proprietary trading and works really well.

    I use a similar setup and have OK results. One question though. How often do you see the ADX above 70? My criteria has been an ADX >40 and rising which indicates a trend is in place. Just scanning through a few charts, I see those with an ADX >70 have already had a large price move. I am a new day trader and have much to learn.

  One of the weaknesses of day trading is finding stocks with enough movement in price.  A good way to find stocks with good movement in price is to use the ATR.  However, a weakness that I have found in the ATR is that fact ATR is not a true indicator of movement. (Yes, it is a true indicator of dollar movement, but not price movement).   So I wrote a small filter to give a  True ATR indicator.  This indicator shows the Percent movement in price, so you can see and filter true movement amount be it a $5 stock or a $85 dollar stock.  Just look at the Percent ATR movement and you will know the true movement in a stock over time.
 
 Here I am looking at stocks with a price movement in the last 5 days averaging over 10% on stocks with a 10 to 20 dollar price per share.

 I hope I got this right.
