This method calculates the Average Directional Movement Index Rating.

var ADXR(period, highPricesArray, lowPricesArray, closePricesArray, volumeArray, calculatedDataArray);

period

Period integer value.

highPricesArray

Array object filled with high prices.

lowPricesArray

Array object filled with low prices.

closePricesArray

Array object filled with close prices.

volumeArray

Array object filled with volume prices.

calculatedDataArray

Empty Array object that will be filled with calculated data.

Returns true if calculation was completed successfully, or false otherwise.

The following example demonstrates how to use ADXR method.

function calculate(beginIndex, endIndex)

{

var period = 15;

var highPricesArray = new Array();

var lowPricesArray = new Array();

var closePricesArray = new Array();

var volumeArray = new Array();

//populate arrays..

var calculatedDataArray = new Array();

var rc = TechnicalAnalysis.ADXR(period, highPricesArray, lowPricesArray,

closePricesArray, volumeArray, calculatedDataArray);

}
