The Accumulation Distribution Line (ADL) is a volume-based technical indicator that uses the relationship between a stock's price and volume flow to determine whether a security is being accumulated (bought) or distributed (sold). It helps traders confirm the strength of a trend or anticipate reversals when the indicator diverges from price.
This sample plots CSCO daily OHLC data on the main chart plot and renders the ADL indicator in a separate lower subplot set to 30% height. The chart maps open, high, low, close, and volume fields from CSV data and features dual Y-axes on each plot, a synchronized line scroller for full-range overview, a range picker for exact date input, and a range selector with preset intervals — all focused on the selected range from November 2003 to April 2008.
