Aroon's spread is on the upper side (recent high more recent than recent low over 25 weeks); ADX's smoothed directional-movement asymmetry is elevated; +DI exceeds -DI over the 14-period lookback.
State
Recent high more recent than recent low (Aroon), elevated ADX asymmetry, and +DI above -DI
Emergence
Three directional-movement readings line up: Aroon's (Up − Down + 100)/2 spread is on the upper side (the 25-week high is more recent than the 25-week low), ADX (smoothed +DI/-DI asymmetry) is elevated, and DMI's (+DI − -DI + 100)/2 spread is on the upper side (+DI dominates). The Aroon and DMI readings are direction-asymmetric: scoring 70+ corresponds to up-direction dominance; the down-direction equivalents would score 0–30. ADX is direction-agnostic — it records asymmetry magnitude only.
Limits
All three are present-state readings on different lookback windows (Aroon 25w, ADX/DMI 14-period). None predicts how long the configuration will persist or what magnitude of move follows. The asymmetric scoring of Aroon and DMI means this interpretation fires specifically on up-direction alignment; a directionally-aligned downtrend would not fire this interpretation.
Explanation
Three directional-movement readings co-occur: - Aroon Spread (aroon-standard): combines AroonUp and AroonDown into a single 0–100 axis. Score ≥70 means the 25-week high is significantly more recent than the 25-week low (up-direction). - ADX (adx-standard): smoothed magnitude of +DI/-DI asymmetry over a 14-period lookback. Direction-agnostic — fires on asymmetry size, not on which side dominates. - DMI Spread (dmi-standard): (+DI − -DI + 100)/2 over the 14-period lookback. Score ≥70 means +DI dominates (up-direction). Because Aroon and DMI score asymmetrically (70+ corresponds to the up-direction), this interpretation fires only on up-direction alignment. A directionally-aligned downtrend would not fire it.
Interpretation
Co-occurrence of three up-direction-aligned readings (Aroon, ADX, DMI). Aroon and DMI are direction-asymmetric — equivalent down-direction configurations would not fire. The formulas do not predict trend persistence.
