This strategy uses the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) indicator to gauge buying and selling pressure. Rising A/D alongside price above the moving average signals accumulation, while falling A/D below the average indicates distribution.
Trades are taken in the direction of the A/D trend relative to the moving average. A change in A/D direction acts as an exit signal.
Stops are optional but can help manage risk.
