ATR ZigZag BreakoutATR ZigZag Breakout
This strategy uses my ATR ZigZag indicator (powered by the ZigZagCore library) to scalp breakouts at volatility-filtered highs and lows.
Everyone knows stops cluster around clear swing highs and lows. Breakout traders often pile in there, too. These levels are predictable areas where aggressive orders hit the tape. The idea here is simple:
→ Let ATR ZigZag define clean, volatility-filtered pivots
→ Arm a stop market order at those pivots
→ Join the breakout when the crowd hits the level
The key to greater success in this simple strategy lies in the ZigZag. Because the pivots are filtered by ATR instead of fixed bar counts or fractals, the levels tend to be more meaningful and less noisy.
This approach is especially suited for intraday trading on volatile instruments (e.g., NQ, GC, liquid crypto pairs).
How It Works
1. Pivot detection
The ATR ZigZag uses an ATR-based threshold to confirm swing highs and lows. Only when price has moved far enough in the opposite direction does a pivot become “official.”
2. Candidate breakout level
When a new swing direction is detected and the most recent high/low has not yet been broken in the current leg, the strategy arms a stop market order at that pivot.
• Long candidate → most recent swing high
• Short candidate → most recent swing low
These “candidate trades” are shown as dotted lines.
3. Entry, SL, and TP
If price breaks through the level, the stop order is filled and a bracket is placed:
• Stop loss = ATR × SL multiplier
• Take profit = SL distance × RR multiplier
Once a level has traded, it is not reused in the same swing leg.
4. Cancel & rotate
If the market reverses and forms a new swing in the opposite direction before the level is hit, the pending order is cancelled and a new candidate is considered in the new direction.
Additional Features
• Optional session filter for backtesting specific trading hours

ATR Money Line Bands V2The "ATR Money Line Bands V2" is a clever TradingView overlay designed for trend identification with volatility-aware bands, evolving from basic ATR envelopes.
Reasoning Behind Construction: The core idea is to blend a smoothed trend line with dynamic volatility bands for reliable signals in varying markets. The "Money Line" uses linear regression (ta.linreg) on closes over a length (default 16) instead of a moving average, as it fits data via least-squares for a cleaner, forward-projected trend without lag artifacts. ATR (default 12-period) powers the bands because it measures true range volatility better than std dev in gappy assets like crypto/stocks—bands offset from the Money Line by ATR * multiplier (default 1.5). A dynamic multiplier (boosts by ~33% on spikes > prior ATR * 1.3) prevents tight bands from false breakouts during surges. Trend detection checks slope against an ATR-scaled tolerance (default 0.15) to ignore noise, labeling bull/bear/neutral—avoiding whipsaws in flats.
Properties: It's an overlay with a colored Money Line (green bull, red bear, yellow neutral) and invisible bands (toggle to show gray lines) filled semi-transparently matching trend for visual pop. Dynamic adaptation makes bands widen/contract intelligently. An info table (positionable, e.g., top_right) displays real-time values: Money Line, bands, ATR, trend—great for quick scans. Limits history (2000 bars) and labels (500) for efficiency.
Tips for Usage: Apply to any timeframe/asset; defaults suit medium-term (e.g., daily stocks). Watch color flips: green for longs (enter on pullbacks to lower band), red for shorts (vice versa), yellow to sit out. Use bands as S/R—breakouts signal momentum, squeezes impending vol. Tweak length for sensitivity (shorter for intraday), multiplier for width (higher for trends), tolerance for fewer neutrals. Pair with volume/RSI for confirmation; backtest to optimize. In choppy markets, disable dynamic mult to avoid over-expansion. Overall, it's adaptive and visual—helps trend-follow without overcomplicating.
atr stop loss for double SMA v6Strategy Name
atr stop loss for double SMA v6
Credit: This v6 update is based on Daveatt’s “BEST ATR Stop Multiple Strategy.”
Core Logic
Entry: Go long when the 15-period SMA crosses above the 45-period SMA; go short on the inverse cross.
Stop-Loss: On entry, compute ATR(14)×2.0 and set a fixed stop at entry ± that amount. Stop remains static until hit.
Trend Tracking: Uses barssince() to ensure only one active long or short position; stop is only active while that trend persists.
Visualization
Plots fast/slow SMA lines in teal/orange.
On each entry bar, displays a label showing “ATR value” and “ATR×multiple” positioned at the 30-bar low (long) or high (short).
Draws an “×” at the stop-price level in green (long) or red (short) while the position is open.
Execution Settings
Initial Capital: $100 000, Size = 100 shares per trade.
Commission: 0.075% per trade.
Pyramiding: 1.
Calculations: Only on bar close (no intra-bar ticks).
Usage Notes
Static ATR stop adapts to volatility but does not trail.
Ideal for trending, liquid markets (stocks, futures, FX).
Adjust SMA lengths or ATR multiple for faster/slower signals.
ATR Based Zigzag w EMAThe "ATR Based Zigzag with EMA" indicator is a refined trend-following tool designed for traders who demand clarity, precision, and robust trend detection. This script uses an ATR (Average True Range)-based breakout mechanism to dynamically determine the current market trend, while overlaying a clean, smoothed EMA (Exponential Moving Average) line to visually represent the active directional bias.
The indicator continuously tracks new swing highs and lows based on ATR volatility thresholds. When price moves sufficiently against the current trend — exceeding an ATR-multiplied distance — the trend is considered reversed. This adaptive method ensures that trend flips are based not on arbitrary price action, but on meaningful, volatility-adjusted movements.
Instead of plotting zigzag-style pivots which can create visual noise, the indicator draws a single, smooth EMA line calculated from the median price ((high + low) / 2). The color of the line shifts instantly based on the active trend: green (or your customized color) for uptrends, and red for downtrends. In addition, individual price bars are optionally colored to match the trend, further enhancing at-a-glance clarity without cluttering the chart.
Key user-defined inputs include the ATR length, ATR multiplier (sensitivity for trend flips), EMA smoothing length (responsiveness of the trend line), and full color customization for uptrend and downtrend states.
This indicator excels at providing a clear and immediate understanding of trend conditions, making it highly effective for:
Trend-following strategies
Reversal spotting based on volatility breaks
Entry/exit confirmation
Visual chart cleanliness and minimalism
Whether used standalone or alongside other tools, the "ATR Based Zigzag with EMA" offers a disciplined, volatility-sensitive view of market structure — engineered for traders who refuse to tolerate noise, hesitation, or ambiguity in their decision-making.
ATR Multi-Timeframe (Trend Direction + Current Levels) Indicator Name

Key Features
Multi-Timeframe ATR Analysis:
Calculates the Average True Range (ATR) and True Range (TR) for daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes.
Trend Direction Indicators:
Displays trend direction using arrows (▲ for uptrend, ▼ for downtrend) with color-coded labels (green for uptrend, red for downtrend).
Support and Resistance Levels:
Dynamically calculates trend levels (Open ± ATR) and opposite levels for each timeframe.
Persistent lines extend these levels into the future for better visualization.
Customizable Settings:
Toggle visibility of daily, weekly, and monthly levels.
Adjust line width and colors for each timeframe.
Summary Table:
Displays a compact table showing ATR percentages, TR percentages, and trend direction for all timeframes.

ATR Stop LossThe ATR Stop Loss indicator is designed to assist traders in managing risk by calculating dynamic stop loss levels based on the Average True Range (ATR). By considering market volatility, this tool helps identify optimal stop loss placements for both long and short positions, making it easier for traders to protect their investments and avoid premature exits.
Features:
Customizable ATR period and multiplier to adapt to different trading strategies and market conditions.
Displays stop loss levels directly on the chart for quick decision-making.
Works across various timeframes and assets, offering flexible application in diverse trading scenarios.
How It Works: The indicator calculates the ATR over a specified period and multiplies it by a user-defined value to plot stop loss levels above or below the current closing price. For long positions, the stop loss level is set below the price, while for short positions, it is set above. These levels help traders set stops that account for current market volatility, reducing the likelihood of getting stopped out by minor fluctuations.
Usage: Add the ATR Stop Loss indicator to your chart, customize the ATR period and multiplier as needed, and use the visualized stop loss levels to manage your trades with greater precision and confidence.

ATR Range Accumulation by Standard Deviation and Volume [SS]So, this is an indicator/premise I have been experimenting with, which mixes ATR with Z-Score and Volume metrics.
What does the indicator do?
The indicator, on the lower timeframes, uses an ATR approach to determine short-term ranges. It takes the average ATR range over a designated lookback period and plots out the levels like so:
It then calculates the Z-Score for these ATR targets (shown in the chart above) and calculates, over the designated lookback period, how often price accumulates at that standard deviation level.
The indicator is essentially a hybrid of my Z-Score Support and Resistance indicator and my frequency distribution indicator. It combines both concepts into one.
You also have the option of sorting by volume accumulation. This will display the accumulation of the ranges by volume accumulation, like so:
Larger Timeframes:
If you want to see the accumulation by volume or standard deviation on the larger timeframes, you can. Simply toggle on your preferred setting:
Show Total Accumulation Breakdown:
This will break down the levels, over the lookback period, by standard deviation. This is similar to the Z-Score support and resistance indicator. It will then show you how often price accumulates at these various standard deviation levels. Here is an example on the daily timeframe using the 1D chart settings:
Inversely, you can repeat this, with the Z-Score levels, but show accumulation by volume. This will print 5 boxes, which are between +3 Standard Deviations and -3 Standard Deviations, like so:
Here we can see that 61% of volume accumulation is between -1 and 1 standard deviation.
Using it to Trade:
For swing trading, I suggest using the larger timeframe information. However, for both swing and day traders, it is also helpful to use the ATR display. You can modify the ATR display to show the levels on any timeframe by selecting which timeframe you would like to see ATR ranges for. If you are trading on the 1 or 5-minute chart, I suggest leaving the levels at no shorter than a 60-minute timeframe.
You can also use these levels on the daily for the weekly levels, etc.
The accumulation being shown will be based on the current chart timeframe. This is a function of Pinescript, but in this case, it's actually advantageous because if you are trading on the shorter timeframe, and a level has 0% recent accumulation, it's unlikely we will see that level soon or overly quickly. Intraday retracements will generally happen to areas of high accumulation.
How this indicator is different:
The difference in this indicator comes from its focus on accumulation in relation to Standard Deviation. There is one thing that is consistent among retail traders, algorithms, market makers, and funds, and that is looking at the market in terms of standard deviation. Each person, market maker, and algorithm may be slightly nuanced in how it conceptualizes standard deviation (whether it be since the inception of the ticker (or IPO), or the previous 500 days, or the previous 100 days, etc.), but the premise remains consistent. Standard Deviation is a really important, if not the most important, metric to pay attention to. Another important metric is volume. Thus, the premise is that combining volume accumulation with standard deviation should, theoretically, be telling. We can see the extent of buying at various standard deviations and whether a stock is really a buy or not.
And that's the indicator! Hope you enjoy it. Leave your comments and questions below.

ATR Table 2.0ATR Table 2.0
This script was created in order to display a table that "calculates" how far the price can go on the current day .
The script is a table with 3 lines that calculates:
First Line - Day TR: The True Range of the current day ( - , including an Opening GAP if it exists);
Second Line - 10 Day ATR: The Average True Range of the asset (including Opening GAPs) for the last 10 days;
Third LIne - Range Consumed: How much of the 10 Day ATR it was consumed on the current day.
Example of how to use the information on the table and the understanding of it's purpose:
1) Supose you are day trading an asset that, during the last 10 days, have moved around $1.00 a day - This is the 10 Day ATR.
2) On this day, after 2 hours of the opening market, the price have already moved $0.50 (supose that it has moved $0.30 up and $0.35 down from the close of the prior day and the price is now near the close of the prior day).
3) In this situation, knowing that the price often moves around $1.00 a day, and knowing that it already moved $0.65 ($0.30 up and $0.35 down based on the close of the prior day), you may pay attention when the price breaksthrough the max or the min of the day, cause it can still move $0.35 in that direction ($1.00 - $0.65).
----------------------------------------------
ATR Table 2.0
Esse script foi criado para disponibilizar uma tabela que "calcula" quanto o preço pode andar ainda no dia em questão .
O script é uma tabela com 3 linhas que calcula:
Primeira Linha - TR do Dia: O Range Verdadeira do dia em questão ( - , incluindo GAP de Abertura se for o caso);
Segunda Linha - ATR de 10 Dias: A média do Range Verdadeira do ativo (incluindo GAPs de abertura) dos últimos 10 dias;
Terceira Linha - Range Consumido: O quanto do ATR de 10dias já foi consumido no dia em questão.
Exemplo de como usar essa informação na tabela e o entendimento do seu propósito:
1) Suponha que você está realizando day trade de um ativo que, durante os últimos 10 dias, se move em torno de $1.00 por dia. Esse é o ATR de 10 dias.
2) Nesse dia, após 2 horas da abertura do pregão, o preço já se moveu $.050 (suponhamos que ele tenha se moveu $0.30 para cima e $0.35 para baixo a partir do fechamento do dia anterior e agora o preço está próximo do fechamento do dia anterior).
3) Nessa situação, sabendo que o preço se move por volta de $1.00 por dia, e sabendo que ele já se moveu $0.65 ($0.30 pra cima e $0.35 pra baixo a partir do fechamento do dia anterior), você deve se atentar para quando o preço romper a máxima ou a mínima do dia, pois ele pode se mover ainda $.035 na direção do rompimento ($1.00 - $0.65).
ATR BandsIt has happened to everybody. You enter the market, the position gets a stop loss, then later the market goes in the direction you originally planned. Worse yet - you enter a position, the market goes in your favor, gets near the target, and then it reverses and you get stopped.
We brazilians call this a "violinado", or getting violinated. It happens either because:
1. You put the stop loss too close, or the target too far
2. You entered in the right direction, but at a wrong time
While the second point cannot be programmly adressed, the first can. One popular way of setting a stop loss is by using the average of the true range, it even has a built-in indicator in TV. The problem with it is that you can still get violinated, since as the trend develops, the stop loss only goes up, never down. So if you enter at the wrong time, one slip can still take you out of the market.
Since I got sick of losing money using a conventional stop loss, I made these ATR bands. When you add this indicator to your graph, 6 lines are going to show up, 3 above the price, 3 below it. These lines are calculated from the ATR of the last 20 periods (can be configurated). The upper lines are the high of the last candle + the ATR * the multiplicator factor, the lower lines are the low - ATR * multiplicator factor. There are three multiplicator factors: 1.0, 1.618 and 2.0, and you change them to be whatever you want.
The logic behind it is that theses bands represents the region in which the market is more likely to stay. So if you enter the market at 50.00, you can't expect it to reach 500.00 in the next hour if the ATR is 5.00. And if you set the stop loss at 49.99, it is very likely that the market is going to stop you. By using the ATR bands, you can get a more reasonable price range, so you would set the stop loss at 45.00 and the take profit level at 60.00.
There are two types os ATR you can use: the regular, calculated with RMA, and another using a custom WMA, which puts greater emphasis on large amplitudes. By default, the average uses the past 20 true ranges. You can also choose to use either the closing price or the extremes of the candle as a basis.
Another thing I've added is the violation statistics, which shows the percentages of the times that a band was violated in the next 5 candles (can be configurated). With this, you can get a broader view on the probability of the bands actually being reached.
You may have notice that the bands are lagged by 1 period. I did this so that there is no way you can use future data. You can disable it or increase it, but I recommend just letting it be 1. These bands are the range in which the price is most likely to stay in, if you change the lag you are essentially breaking it's whole purpose.

ATR Mark Up/DownThis script looks for a period with increased volatility, as measured by ATR (Average True Range), then it looks for a high or a low in that area.
When price is above EMA (200 is default, can be changed), it looks for the highs and adds multiples of ATR to the high. Default values for multipliers are 3,9 and 27, meaning that the script will show 3xATR level above the high, 9xATR above the high and 27xATR above the high.
When price is below EMA it looks for the lows and subtracts multiples of ATR from the low.The script will show 3xATR level below the low, 9xATR below the low and 27xATR below the low.
Multipliers values can be changed as well, making it a versatile tool that shows potential levels of suppport/resistance based on the volatility.
Possible use cases:
Breakout trading, when price crosses a certain level, it may show potential profit targets for trades opened at a breakout.
Stoploss helper. Many traders use ATR for their stoplosses, 1 ATR below the swing low for long trades and 1 ATR above the swing high for short trades are common values used by many traders. In this case, the Lookback value comes handy, if we want to look maybe at a more recent value for swing high/low point.
The levels shown by this indicator are not guaranteed to be or not to be reached by price, these levels should be used in confluence with other indicators and looked at as a visual helper.
That's all, hope you enjoy it!

ATR ZigZag - Volatility-Filtered Market StructureDescription
This indicator draws ZigZags using an ATR based threshold for direction switching to identify major swing highs and lows. Instead of relying on fractals or fixed bar-count swings, pivots are confirmed only when price moves beyond the prior extreme by:
threshold = ATR(length) × ATR_mult
This filters noise, enforces valid swing structure (high → low → high), and adapts automatically to volatility. The ATR ZigZag is ideal for traders who want a clean, objective view of swing structure without noise. This has many uses, including mapping swing structure, drawing chart patterns, and trading around extremes.
Lag and Repainting
Pivots are confirmed only after price moves sufficiently in the opposite direction. This creates necessary lag. The ZigZag is drawn when this occurs, and will anchor to the high/low in the past. Optional detection dot plots show exactly when confirmation occurred.
What You See
ZigZag: dashed gray line, repainted to anchor at the confirmed highs and lows
Latest Pivot Levels: Dashed horizontal lines at the most recent confirmed high/low.
Optional Live Swing Leg: A real-time line from the last confirmed pivot to the current swing extreme, updating until a new pivot forms.
Optional ATR Boxes: 1×ATR shaded zones around the latest pivot for structural context.
Optional Pivot Confirmation Dots: Markers show the bar where the threshold is crossed and a swing is officially confirmed. This is to understand the lag and see when the ZigZag repainted.
ATR % of yesterday close with SMA (Bull/Bear colored)This script visualizes the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of a user-selected price point for a quick view of volatility.
ATR % values are plotted as a color-coded histogram. Bullish days (close > prior close) paint the bar green; bearish days (close < prior close) paint it red; unchanged days are gray.
Two simple moving average (SMA) overlays to reveal volatility trends.
Variables:
Histogram bars represent ATR as a % of one of:
- Previous Close (default option)
- Previous Open
- Today Close
- Today Open
Two SMA lines (default: blue for 20-period, orange for 5-period) shown on ATR % for trend/range regime tracking.
Optionally display the ATR % in continuous line (yellow)—hidden by default.

ATR Screener with Labels and ShapesWeekly Daily ATR Pine Scanner
To find out tightness or contraction in a stock we needs to check if volatality is decreasing as well as compared to previous 14 or 10 bars volatility . we check this for weekly and then for Daily , so that we can enter in a stock which is tightest in recent times.
Condition is :
1. Weekly Candle ATR x 0.8 < 10 Week ATR
2. Daily Candle ATR x 0.6 < 14 Day ATR
When both of the conditions are met then they signifies that the stock has tightened in weekly and daily aswell . so now we can find ways to enter during max squeeze.
How to scan in Pine Scanner ?
FIrst add indicator as favourite and Go to pine scanner page in trading view and then scan your watchlist and there you will see 3 columns 1 with only Weekly conditions met , 2 with only Daily and 3rd with Both conditions met .
Select stocks and move to new watchlist and now you have those stocks which has contracted the most in recent times .
ATR | LOTSIZE | Risk (Futures)This Pine Script is a futures-specific trading utility designed to help F\&O (Futures and Options) traders quickly assess the volatility and position sizing for any selected stock on the chart — even if it's not a futures chart.
What the Script Does:
* Automatically detects the futures symbol for the underlying equity using a dynamic mapping system.
* Calculates the ATR (Average True Range) of the futures contract using either SMA or EMA.
* Fetches the Lot Size (Point Value) of the futures instrument.
* Computes risk per lot by multiplying ATR with lot size (Risk = ATR × Lot Size).
* Displays all 3 values — ATR, Lot Size, and Risk in INR — in a compact table on the chart.
Why This Is Useful for F\&O Traders:
* ✅ Quick Risk Assessment: Helps traders understand how much is at risk per lot without switching to the actual futures chart.
* ✅ Position Sizing: Provides data to calculate how many lots to trade based on a defined risk per trade.
* ✅ Volatility Awareness:ATR gives insights into how much the stock typically moves, guiding stop-loss and target placements.
* ✅ Efficient Workflow:No need to load separate futures charts or lookup lot sizes manually — saves time and reduces error.
This tool is ideal for discretionary and systematic traders who want risk and volatility context for every trade, especially in the NSE Futures & Options segment.

✅ ATR Distance from VWAP – Calculates how many ATRs the price is from the VWAP.
✅ Dynamic Table Display – Shows ATR distance in real-time for quick decision-making.
✅ Intraday Focus – Designed for scalpers and day traders using minutes or hourly timeframes.
📊 How to Use:
Look for price moving away from VWAP to identify extended moves.
Use as a reversion signal when price deviates too far from VWAP.
ATR SL and TP with Candle Freeze & DataWindowThis indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to automatically calculate your stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels based on the current market volatility and your chosen multipliers. Here's how it works:
ATR Calculation:
The indicator computes the ATR, which measures the average market volatility over a set period. This value helps gauge how much the price typically moves.
SL and TP Determination:
Depending on whether you're in a long or short trade, the SL and TP are calculated relative to the current price:
For a long trade, the stop loss is set below the current price (by subtracting a multiple of the ATR) and the take profit is set above it (by adding a multiple of the ATR).
For a short trade, the calculations are reversed.
Candle Freeze Feature:
Once a new candle starts, the calculated SL and TP values are "frozen" for that candle. This means they remain constant during the candle's formation, preventing them from updating continuously as the price fluctuates. This can make it easier to plan your trades without the levels shifting mid-candle.
Data Window & Labels:
The SL and TP values are plotted on the chart as lines and displayed in labels for quick reference. Additionally, they appear in TradingView's Data Window, so you can easily copy the price numbers if needed.
Overall, the indicator is designed to help you manage your trades by setting dynamic, volatility-adjusted SL and TP levels that only update at the start of each new candle, aligning with your chosen timeframe. Let me know if you have any more questions or need further adjustments!
ATR BandsThe ATR Bands indicator is a volatility-based tool that plots dynamic support and resistance levels around the price using the Average True Range (ATR). It consists of two bands:
Upper Band: Calculated as current price + ATR, representing an upper volatility threshold.
Lower Band: Calculated as current price - ATR, serving as a lower volatility threshold.
Key Features:
✅ Measures Volatility: Expands and contracts based on market volatility.
✅ Dynamic Support & Resistance: Helps identify potential breakout or reversal zones.
✅ Customizable Smoothing: Supports multiple moving average methods (RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA) for ATR calculation.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: If the price consistently touches or exceeds the upper band, it may indicate strong bullish momentum.
Reversal Signals: A price approaching the lower band may suggest a potential reversal or increased selling pressure.
Volatility Assessment: Wide bands indicate high volatility, while narrow bands suggest consolidation.
This indicator is useful for traders looking to incorporate volatility-based strategies into their trading decisions

ATR Oscillator with DotsThe ATR Oscillator with Dots utilizes the Average True Range (ATR), a traditional measure that captures the extent of an asset's price movements within a given timeframe. Rather than depicting these values in a continuous line, the ATR Oscillator represents them as discrete dots, colored according to the price movement direction: green for upward movements when the current close is higher than the previous, and red for downward movements when the current close is lower.
In terms of functionality, the key feature of this oscillator is how it visualizes volatility through the spacing of the dots. During periods of high market volatility, the shifts between red and green dots tend to occur more frequently and with greater disparity in their positioning along the oscillator’s axis. This indicates sharp price changes and high trading activity. Conversely, periods of market consolidation are characterized by fewer color changes and a more clustered arrangement of dots, reflecting less price movement and lower volatility.
Traders can leverage the insights from the ATR Oscillator with Dots to better understand the market's behavior. For instance, a tight clustering of dots around the zero line suggests a consolidation phase, where the price is relatively stable and may be preparing for a breakout. On the other hand, widely spaced dots alternating between red and green signify strong price movements, offering opportunities for traders to capitalize on trends or prepare for potential reversals.
Imagine a scenario where a trader is monitoring a currency pair in a fluctuating forex market. An observed increase in the frequency and gap of alternating red and green dots would suggest a rise in volatility, possibly triggered by economic news or events. This could be an optimal time for the trader to seek entry or exit points, aligning their strategy with the increased activity. Conversely, a reduction in the frequency and gap of dot changes could signal an impending consolidation phase, prompting the trader to adopt a more cautious approach or explore range-bound trading strategies.
Therefore, the ATR Oscillator with Dots not only simplifies the interpretation of volatility and price momentum through visual cues but also enriches the trader’s strategy by highlighting periods of high activity and consolidation. This tool can be crucial for making informed decisions, particularly in fast-moving or uncertain market conditions, and can be effectively paired with other indicators to confirm trends and refine trading tactics.
