Hi, our ADX values that we obtained by entering Wildes formulas (about 15 formuals to get to the final adx values)are almost the same as Metatrader, but not quite. we are doing our own software and backtesting using the ADX (dm+ and dm-) on excell spreadsheets. we need Meta traders ADX excell spreadsheet formulas so that we can insert these correct values in our backtesting. The formulas on the internet are working but our end ADX result is slightly different to MetaTrader 4 ?
Please get your "formula” expert to email us the excell spreadsheet for formuals that lead to the final ADX values that Metatrader uses. Thankyou
