Trailing Stop

Most of the trailing stops on TradingView are made of using the lowest lows and the highest highs. Not many are based around what I called the volatile trailing stop.
This is where the trailing stop will move around according to a set percentage difference from the previous closing value. This allows you to say "If the current bar moves x percent, then stop". The script I've made here is a simple version of that with a few options for smoothing and setting the percent change.
