ATR-Info
WHAT IT SHOWS
- ATR (): Average True Range of the chosen timeframe, printed with the instrument’s native tick precision (format.mintick).
- ATR % PRICE: ATR divided by the latest close, multiplied by 100 – the range as a percentage of current price.
- LEN / TF: The ATR length and timeframe you selected (shown in small print).
INPUTS
- ATR Length (default 14)
- ATR Timeframe (for example 60, D, W)
- Design settings: table position, font size, colours, border
EXAMPLES
BTC-USD: price 67 800, ATR 2 450, ATR % 3.6
NQ E-Mini: price 18 230, ATR 355, ATR % 1.9
CL WTI: price 76.40, ATR 2.10, ATR % 2.8
EUR-USD: price 1.0860, ATR 0.0075, ATR % 0.69
USE CASES
Volatility-adjusted stops: place your stop roughly one ATR beyond the entry price.
Position sizing: money at risk divided by ATR gives the number of contracts or coins.
Market selection: trade assets only when their ATR % sits in your preferred range.
Strategy filter: trigger entries or exits only when ATR % crosses a chosen threshold.
LIMITS
ATR is descriptive; it does not predict future moves.
Illiquid symbols may show exaggerated ATR spikes.
ATR % ignores differing session lengths (24/7 crypto versus exchange-traded hours).
