This indicator consists of a fast and slow EMA (default lengths are 50 and 9 periods) and an upper and lower ATR band. When combined, this combination gives traders an accurate picture of both trend strength and direction.
Users can modify the lengths of the fast and slow EMA , as well as the multipliers and length for the upper and lower ATR bands.
Slight modification on my previous script "ATR-Overlay"
This script plots the max value of the ATR in a given period.
Really straight forward, but has given me better stop-loss levels on trade entries.
ATR shows volatility. SMA of ATR measures the average volatility over a chosen look-back period (default 200).
Divergence of ATR and sma is represented as a histogram.
Low periods of volatility are below the zero line. High periods of volatility are above the zero line.
Average volatility over a 200 period look-back is the zero value.
Increasing and decreasing volatility in respect to ATR crossing an ema of ATR.
Ema acts as a proxy for look-back period as per Historical Volatility Percentile.
ATR is a proxy for Volatility as per standard deviation.
Divergence below ema means low volatility: the more divergence, the lower.
Divergence above the ema means high volatility.

After testing your individual indicators, it's time to build up your algo with additional indicators and further backtest the strategy.
Using SSL twice here, faster SSL for 1st confirmation, slower SSL for 2nd confirmation and TDFI for volume validation.
After putting the whole system together, sat down to benchmark the various confirmation indicators, shrink it down to backtest individual confirmation indicators.
Results for 24 periods way better than 10, then again it's only one pair. :)
