Percent Volatility MomentumThis pine script calculates percent volatility momentum, negative percent volatility and positive percent volatility. The blue line is the overall momentum of the current percent volatility trend. The red line only includes negative movements in the percent volatility of the source. The green line includes only positive movements of the percent volatility of the source. The script also includes an angle and a normalized angle setting that allows one to determine the angle of the source curve. Note, the angle was transformed from -90 to 90 to 0 to 100. Such that an angle of -90 is transformed to 0. An angle of 0 is transformed to 50 and an angle of 90 is transformed to 100. This is the first draft of this script and my first pine script published. Any feedback is welcome. I borrowed code from TradingView's Linear Regression Channel and Relative Strength Index pine scripts.

S&P500 VIX Volatility Warning IndicatorToday I am sharing with the community a volatility indicator that can help you or your algorithms avoid black swan events. Variance is most commonly used in statistics to derive standard deviation (with its square root). It does have another practical application, and that is to identify outliers in a sample of data. Variance in statistics is defined as the squared difference between a value and its mean. Calculating that squared difference means that the farther away the value is from the mean, the more the variance will grow (exponentially). This exponential difference makes outliers in the variance data more apparent.
Why does this matter?
There are assets or indices that exist in the stock market that might make us adjust our trading strategy if they are behaving in an unusual way. In some instances, we can use variance to identify that behavior and inform our strategy.
Is that really possible?
Let’s look at the relationship between VIX and the S&P500 as an example. If you trade an S&P500 index with a mean reversion strategy or algorithm, you know that they typically do best in times of volatility. These strategies essentially attempt to “call bottom” on a pullback. Their downside is that sometimes a pullback turns into a regime change, or a black swan event. The other downside is that there is no logical tight stop that actually increases their performance, so when they lose they tend to lose big.
So that begs the question, how might one quantitatively identify if this dip could turn into a regime change or black swan event?
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) uses options data to identify, on a large scale, what investors overall expect the market to do in the near future. The Volatility Index spikes in times of uncertainty and when investors expect the market to go down. However, during a black swan event, the VIX spikes a lot harder. We can use variance here to identify if a spike in the VIX exceeds our threshold for a normal market pullback, and potentially avoid entering trades for a period of time (I.e. maybe we don’t buy that dip).
Does this actually work?
In backtesting, this cut the drawdown of my index reversion strategies in half. It also cuts out some good trades (because high investor fear isn’t always indicative of a regime change or black swan event). But, I’ll happily lose out on some good trades in exchange for half the drawdown. Lets look at some examples of periods of time that trades could have been avoided using this strategy/indicator:
Example 1 – With the Volatility Warning Indicator, the mean reversion strategy could have avoided repeatedly buying this pullback that led to SPXL losing over 75% of its value:
Example 2 - June 2018 to June 2019 - With the Volatility Warning Indicator, the drawdown during this period reduces from 22% to 11%, and the overall returns increase from -8% to +3%
How do you use this indicator?
This indicator determines the variance of the VIX against a long term mean. If the variance of the VIX spikes over an input threshold, the indicator goes up. The indicator will remain up for a defined period of bars/time after the variance returns below the threshold. I have included default values I’ve found to be significant for a short-term mean-reversion strategy, but your inputs might depend on your risk tolerance and strategy time-horizon. The default values are for 1hr VIX data. It will pull in variance data for the VIX regardless of which chart the indicator is applied to.
Disclaimer : Open-source scripts I publish in the community are largely meant to spark ideas or be used as building blocks for part of a more robust trade management strategy. If you would like to implement a version of any script, I would recommend making significant additions/modifications to the strategy & risk management functions. If you don’t know how to program in Pine, then hire a Pine-coder. We can help!
(JS)S&P 500 Volatility Oscillator For Options 2.0I am going to start taking requests to open source my indicators and they will also be updated to Version 4 of Pinescript.
I added some features to the original code such the ability to smooth the oscillator and select the look back periods for the historical volatility.
Link to original:
Original post:
"The idea for this started here: www.tradingview.com with the user @dime
This should only be used on SPX or SPY (though you could use it on other things for correlation I suppose) given that the instrument used to create this calculation is derived from the S&P 500 (thank you VIX ). There's a lot of moving parts here though, so allow me to explain...
First: The main signal is when Implied Volatility (from VIX ) drops beneath Historical Volatility - which is what you want to see so you aren't purchasing a ton of premium on long options. Green and above 0 means that IV% has dropped lower than Historical Volatility . (this signal, for example, would suggest using a Long Call or Put depending on your sentiment)
Second: The green line running underneath zero is the bottom portion of the "Average True Range" derived from the values used to create the oscillator. the closer the bottom histogram is to the green line, the more "normal" IV% is. Obviously, if this gets far away from the line then it could be setting up nicely to short options and sell the IV premium to someone else. (this signal, for example, would suggest using something like a Bull Put Spread)
Third: The red background along with the white line that drops down below zero signals when (and how far) the IV% from 3 months out (from VIX3M ) is less than the current IV%. This would signal the current environment has IV way too high, a signal to short options once again (and don't take any long option positions!).
Tried to make this simple, yet effective. If you trade options on SPX , SPY , even ES1! futures - this is a tool tailored specifically for you! As I said before, if you want you can use it for correlation on other securities. Any other ideas or suggestions surrounding this, please let me know! Enjoy!
Feb 17, 2019
Release Notes: Cosmetic update for a much cleaner look:
-Replaced the "HIGH IV" with a simlple "H"
-Now the white line is constantly showing you the relationship between VIX and VIX3M - when VIX is greater than VIX3M the background still goes red
-However, now when VIX drops below Historical Volatility, the background is bright green
-When both above are true - it's dark green
-The Average True Range on the bottom is now a series of crosses"
Volume Volatility SpectrumThis indicator estimates price volatility and it is based on Volume only (presumably Tick Volume in Forex).
Tick volume is supposed to be a good proxy to actual volume in spot forex (study of Caspar Marney, 2011)
The advantage of this indicator is that it can be used with any pair, any timeframe.
The only parameters are the periods of the reference Volume Moving Average and the fast Volume MA.
The fluctuations of a short period Volume MA with respect to a gently MA with high period
are calculated.
RED areas depict low volatility
GREEN areas depict high volatility.
When the clouds are outside the region delimited by the aqua lines we have extreme conditions:
Extremely low volatility = red cloud outside the aqua bands
Extremely high volatility = green cloud outside the aqua bands

Ultimate Volatility Scanner by NHBprod - Requested by Client!Hey Everyone!
I created another script to add to my growing library of strategies and indicators that I use for automated crypto and stock trading! This strategy is for BITCOIN but can be used on any stock or crypto. This was requested by a client so I thought I should create it and hopefully build off of it and build variants!
This script gets and compares the 14-day volatility using the ATR percentage for a list of cryptocurrencies and stocks. Cryptocurrencies are preloaded into the script, and the script will show you the TOP 5 coins in terms of volatility, and then compares it to the Bitcoin volatility as a reference. It updates these values once per day using daily timeframe data from TradingView. The coins are then sorted in descending order by their volatility.
If you don't want to use the preloaded set of coins, you have the option of inputting your own coins AND/OR stocks!
Let me know your thoughts.
Roger & Satchell Estimator Historical Volatility Bands [Loxx]Roger & Satchell Estimator Historical Volatility Bands are constructed using:
Average as the middle line.
Upper and lower bands using theRoger & Satchell Estimator Historical Volatility Bands for bands calculation.
What is Roger & Satchell Estimator Historical Volatility?
The Rogers–Satchell estimator does not handle opening jumps; therefore, it underestimates the volatility. It accurately explains the volatility portion that can be attributed entirely to a trend in the price evolution. Rogers and Satchell try to embody the frequency of price observations in the model in order to overcome the drawback. They claim that the corrected estimator outperforms the uncorrected one in a study based on simulated data.
RSEHV = sqrt((Z/n) * sum((log(high/close)*log(high/open)) + (log(low/close)*log(low/open))))
The color of the middle line, unlike the bands colors, has 3 colors. When colors of the bands are the same, then the middle line has the same color, otherwise it's white.

Multiple Frequency Volatility CorrelationThis is a complex indicator that looks to provide some insight into the correlation between volume and price volatility.
Rising volatility is depicted with the color green while falling volatility is depicted with purple.
Lightness of the color is used to depict the length of the window used, darker == shorter in the 2 -> 512 window range.
Statistical Volatility - Extreme Value Method This indicator used to calculate the statistical volatility, sometime
called historical volatility, based on the Extreme Value Method.

Relative Volatility Index The RVI is a modified form of the relative strength index (RSI).
The original RSI calculation separates one-day net changes into
positive closes and negative closes, then smoothes the data and
normalizes the ratio on a scale of zero to 100 as the basis for the
formula. The RVI uses the same basic formula but substitutes the
10-day standard deviation of the closing prices for either the up
close or the down close. The goal is to create an indicator that
measures the general direction of volatility. The volatility is
being measured by the 10-days standard deviation of the closing prices.
Fibonacci Ratios with VolatilityThis script will plot Fibonacci ratios with volatility. The Fibonacci retracement and extensions are plotted in lower time frames up to 15 minutes and therefore, it can be used for intraday only.

FVE Volatility color-coded Volume bar The FVE is a pure volume indicator. Unlike most of the other indicators
(except OBV), price change doesn?t come into the equation for the FVE
(price is not multiplied by volume), but is only used to determine whether
money is flowing in or out of the stock. This is contrary to the current trend
in the design of modern money flow indicators. The author decided against a
price-volume indicator for the following reasons:
- A pure volume indicator has more power to contradict.
- The number of buyers or sellers (which is assessed by volume) will be the same,
regardless of the price fluctuation.
- Price-volume indicators tend to spike excessively at breakouts or breakdowns.
This study is an addition to FVE indicator. Indicator plots different-coloured volume
bars depending on volatility.
Hawkes Volatility Exit IndicatorOverview
The Hawkes Volatility Exit Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders capitalize on volatility breakouts and exit positions when momentum fades. Built on the Hawkes process, it models volatility clustering to identify optimal entry points after quiet periods and exit signals during volatility cooling. Designed to be helpful for swing traders and trend followers across markets like stocks, forex, and crypto.
Key Features Volatility-Based Entries: Detects breakouts when volatility spikes above the 95th percentile (adjustable) after quiet periods (below 5th percentile).
This indicator is probably better on exits than entries.
Smart Exit Signals: Triggers exits when volatility drops below a customizable threshold (default: 30th percentile) after a minimum hold period.
Hawkes Process: Uses a decay-based model (kappa) to capture volatility clustering, making it responsive to market dynamics.
Visual Clarity: Includes a volatility line, exit threshold, percentile bands, and intuitive markers (triangles for entries, X for exits).
Status Table: Displays real-time data on position (LONG/SHORT/FLAT), volatility regime (HIGH/LOW/NORMAL), bars held, and exit readiness.
Customizable Alerts: Set alerts for breakouts and exits to stay on top of trading opportunities.
How It Works Quiet Periods: Identifies low volatility (below 5th percentile) that often precede significant moves.
Breakout Entries: Signals bullish (triangle up) or bearish (triangle down) entries when volatility spikes post-quiet period.
Exit Signals: Suggests exiting when volatility cools below the exit threshold after a minimum hold (default: 3 bars).
Visuals & Table: Tracks volatility, position status, and signals via lines, shaded zones, and a detailed status table.
Settings
Hawkes Kappa (0.1): Adjusts volatility decay (lower = smoother, higher = more sensitive).
Volatility Lookback (168): Sets the period for percentile calculations.
ATR Periods (14): Normalizes volatility using Average True Range.
Breakout Threshold (95%): Volatility percentile for entries.
Exit Threshold (30%): Volatility percentile for exits.
Quiet Threshold (5%): Defines quiet periods.
Minimum Hold Bars (3): Ensures positions are held before exiting.
Alerts: Enable/disable breakout and exit alerts.
How to Use
Entries: Look for triangle markers (up for long, down for short) and confirm with the status table showing "ENTRY" and "LONG"/"SHORT."
Exits: Exit on X cross markers when the status table shows "EXIT" and "Exit Ready: YES."
Monitoring: Use the status table to track position, bars held, and volatility regime (HIGH/LOW/NORMAL).
Combine: Pair with price action, support/resistance, or other indicators for better context.
Tips : Adjust thresholds for your market: lower breakout thresholds for more signals, higher exit thresholds for earlier exits.
Test on your asset to ensure compatibility (best for markets with volatility clustering).
Use alerts to automate signal detection.
Limitations Requires sufficient data (default: 168 bars) for reliable signals. Check "Data Status" in the table.
Focuses on volatility, not price direction—combine with trend tools.
May lag slightly due to the smoothing nature of the Hawkes process.
Why Use It?
The Hawkes Volatility Exit Indicator offers a unique, data-driven approach to timing trades based on volatility dynamics. Its clear visuals, customizable settings, and real-time status table make it a valuable addition to any trader’s toolkit. Try it to catch breakouts and exit with precision!

█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ Where Market Energy Meets Visual Poetry ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░█
📖 INTRODUCTION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The Aurora Borealis occurs when charged particles from the sun collide with gases in Earth's atmosphere, creating mesmerizing waves of colorful light.
𝗩𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗔𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗿𝗮 applies this elegant concept to financial markets:
⚡ Price Momentum = Charged Particles
🌌 ATR Layers = Atmospheric Layers

When momentum "collides" with volatility layers, the Aurora illuminates potential market regime changes — often before they fully manifest in price action.
🔬 THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Unlike traditional volatility indicators that provide a single value, Volatility Aurora creates a 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶-𝗱𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 using five distinct ATR layers based on Fibonacci periods:
│ Layer │ Period │ Atmospheric │ Function │
├──────────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────┤
│ Layer 1 │ 5 │ Ionosphere │ Captures immediate vol shifts
│ Layer 2 │ 13 │ Mesosphere │ Medium-term vol response
│ Layer 3 │ 34 │ Stratosphere │ Intermediate vol structure
│ Layer 4 │ 55 │ Troposphere │ Foundational vol baseline
│ Layer 5 │ 89 │ Surface │ Structural, long-term vol

█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ حيث تلتقي طاقة السوق بالشعور البصري ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░█
📖 المقدمة
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
يحدث الشفق القطبي عندما تصطدم الجسيمات المشحونة القادمة من الشمس بالغازات في الغلاف الجوي للأرض، مما يخلق موجات ساحرة من الضوء الملون.
يطبق نفس المفهوم الأنيق على الأسواق المالية
⚡ زخم السعر = الجسيمات المشحونة
🌌 طبقات ATR = طبقات الغلاف الجوي
🎨 شدة اللون = حجم الطاقة
📐 توسع الطبقات = حالة التقلب
عندما "يصطدم" الزخم بطبقات التقلب، يُضيء الشفق التغيرات المحتملة في نظام السوق — غالباً قبل أن تتجلى بالكامل في حركة السعر.
🔬 العلم وراء المؤشر
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
على عكس مؤشرات التقلب التقليدية التي تقدم قيمة واحدة، يُنشئ شفق التقلب 𝗽𝗮𝗾𝗹 𝘁𝗮𝗾𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘂𝗯 𝗺𝘂𝘁𝗮'𝗮𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗮𝗹-𝗮𝗯'𝗮𝗱 باستخدام خمس طبقات ATR مميزة مبنية على أرقام فيبوناتشي:
│ الطبقة │ الفترة │ المعادل الجوي │ الوظيفة
│ الطبقة١ │ 5 │ الأيونوسفير │ تلتقط تحولات التقلب الفورية
│ الطبقة٢ │ 13 │ الميزوسفير │ استجابة التقلب متوسطة المدى
│ الطبقة٣ │ 34 │ الستراتوسفير │ هيكل التقلب المتوسط
│ الطبقة٤ │ 55 │ التروبوسفير │ خط الأساس للتقلب
│ الطبقة٥ │ 89 │ السطح │ التقلب الهيكلي طويل المدى
⚡ المفاهيم الأساسية
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
𝟭. توسع وانكماش الطبقات
تتوسع أو تنكمش كل طبقة ديناميكياً بناءً على قيمة ATR المعيارية:
• طبقات متوسعة ← نظام تقلب متزايد
• طبقات منكمشة ← تقلب متناقص / تجميع
• تأثير التنفس ← تصور إيقاع السوق الطبيعي
𝟮. درجة التناغم
تقيس التوافق بين جميع الطبقات الخمس:
• تناغم عالي (>٧٠٪) ← جميع الأطر متفقة ← اتجاهات قوية
• تناغم منخفض (<٣٠٪) ← تباين الأطر ← ظروف متقطعة
𝟯. شدة الطاقة
تحدد مدى قوة "اصطدام" الزخم بطبقات التقلب:
• شدة عالية ← قناعة اتجاهية قوية
• شدة منخفضة ← زخم ضعيف، احتمال انعكاس
𝟰. تصنيف النظام
بناءً على حالات الطبقات المجمعة:
🟢 هادئ ← تقلب منخفض عبر جميع الطبقات
🟡 طبيعي ← ظروف سوق متوازنة
🟠 متقلب ← نشاط مرتفع
🔴 متطرف ← حالة التقلب القصوى
🎨 المكونات البصرية

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📈 تتبع الاتجاه
• ادخل عندما يتوسع الشفق في اتجاهك
• لون خط النواة يؤكد التحيز
• تناغم عالي = ثقة أعلى
💥 اختراقات التقلب
• راقب تحول النظام من هادئ إلى متقلب
• الطبقات المتوسعة تشير إلى حركة قادمة
• ارتفاع الشدة يؤكد قوة الاختراق
↩️ الارتداد للمتوسط
• النظام المتطرف غالباً يسبق الانعكاسات
• طبقات منكمشة بعد التوسع = احتمال تراجع
• تناغم منخفض أثناء الاتجاهات = زخم ضعيف
🛡️ إدارة المخاطر
• استخدم الطبقات الخارجية كدعم/مقاومة ديناميكية
• شفق أوسع = وقف خسارة أوسع مطلوب
• شفق منكمش = معايير مخاطر أضيق

Low Volatility Breakout in Trend
█ OVERVIEW
"Low Volatility Breakout in Trend" is a technical analysis tool that identifies periods of low-volatility consolidation within an ongoing trend and signals potential breakouts aligned with the trend's direction. The indicator detects trends using a simple moving average (SMA) of price, identifies consolidation zones based on the size of candle bodies, and displays the percentage change in volume (volume delta) at the breakout moment.
█ CONCEPTS
The core idea of the indicator is to pinpoint moments where traders can join an ongoing trend by capitalizing on breakouts from consolidation zones, supported by additional information such as volume delta. It provides clear visualizations of trends, consolidation zones, and breakout signals to facilitate trading decisions.
Why Use It?
* Breakout Identification: The indicator locates low-volatility consolidation zones (measured by the size of individual candle bodies, not the price range of the consolidation) and signals breakouts, enabling traders to join the trend at key moments.
* Volume Analysis: Displays the percentage change in volume (delta) relative to its simple moving average, providing insight into market activity rather than acting as a signal filter.
* Visual Clarity: Colored trend lines, consolidation boxes (drawn only after the breakout candle closes, not on subsequent candles), and volume delta labels enable quick chart analysis.
* Flexibility: Adjustable parameters, such as the volatility window length or SMA period, allow customization for various trading strategies and markets.
How It Works
* Trend Detection: The indicator calculates a simple moving average (SMA) of price (default: based on the midpoint of high/low) and creates dynamic trend bands, offset by a percentage of the average candle height (band scaling). A price above the upper band signals an uptrend, while a price below the lower band indicates a downtrend. Trend changes occur not when the price crosses the SMA but when it crosses above the upper band or below the lower band (offset by the average candle height multiplied by the scaling factor).
* Consolidation Identification: Identifies low-volatility zones when the candle body size is smaller than the average body size over a specified period (default: 20 candles) multiplied by a volatility threshold — the maximum allowable body size as a percentage of the average body (e.g., 2 means the candle body must be less than twice the average body to be considered low-volatility).
* Breakout Signals: A breakout occurs when the candle body exceeds the volatility threshold, is larger than the maximum body in the consolidation, and aligns with the trend direction (bullish in an uptrend, bearish in a downtrend).
* Visualization: Draws a trend line with a gradient, consolidation boxes (appearing only after the breakout candle closes, marking the consolidation zone), and volume delta labels. Optionally displays breakout signal arrows.
* Signals and Alerts: The indicator generates signals for bullish and bearish breakouts, including the volume delta percentage. Alerts are an additional feature that can be enabled for notifications.
Settings and Customization
* Volatility Window: Length of the period for calculating the average candle body size (default: 20).
* Volatility Threshold: Maximum candle body size as a percentage of the average body (default: 2).
* Minimum Consolidation Bars: Number of candles required for a consolidation (default: 10).
* SMA Length for Trend: Period of the SMA for trend detection (default: 100).
* Band Scaling: Offset of trend bands as a percentage of the average candle height (default: 250%), determining the distance from the SMA.
* Visualization Options: Enable/disable consolidation boxes (Show Consolidation Boxes, drawn after the breakout candle closes), volume delta labels (Show Volume Delta Labels), and breakout signals (Show Breakout Signals, e.g., triangles).
* Colors: Customize colors for the trend line, consolidation boxes, and volume delta labels.
█ OTHER SECTIONS
Usage Examples
* Joining an Uptrend: When the price breaks out of a consolidation in an uptrend with a volume delta of +50%, open a long position; the signal is stronger if the breakout candle surpasses a local high.
* Avoiding False Breakouts: Ignore breakout signals with low volume delta (e.g., below 0%) and combine the indicator with other tools (e.g., support/resistance levels or oscillators) to confirm moves in low-activity zones.
Notes for Users
* On markets that do not provide volume data, the indicator will not display volume delta — disable volume labels and enable breakout signals (e.g., triangles) instead.
* Adjust parameters to suit the market's characteristics to minimize noise.
* Combine with other tools, such as Fibonacci levels or oscillators, for greater precision.

Keltner Channel Volatility FilterOVERVIEW
The Keltner Channel Volatility Filter indicator is a technical indicator that gauges the amount of volatility currently present in the market. The purpose of this indicator is to filter out with-trend signals during ranging/non-trending/consolidating conditions.
CONCEPTS
This indicator assists traders in capitalizing on the assumption that trends are more likely to start during periods of high volatility compared to periods of low volatility . This is because high volatility indicates that there are bigger players currently in the market, which is necessary to begin a sustained trending move.
So, to determine whether the current volatility in the market is low, the KCVF will grey out all bars whose average price is within the Keltner Channels.
If the average price breaks out of the Keltner Channels , it is reasonable to assume we are in a high-volatility period. Thus, this is the ideal time to enter a trending trade due to the assumption that trends are more likely to start during these high-volatility periods.
HOW DO I READ THIS INDICATOR
When the candles are greyed out, don't take any trend trades since the current volatility is less than the usual volatility experienced in the market.
When the candles aren't greyed out, take all valid with-trend trades since the current volatility is greater than the usual volatility experienced in the market.
Garman & Klass Estimator Historical Volatility Bands [Loxx]Garman & Klass Estimator Historical Volatility Bands are constructed using:
Average as the middle line.
Upper and lower bands using the Garman & Klass Estimator Historical Volatility (instead of "regular" Historical Volatility ) for bands calculation.
What is Garman & Klaus Historical Volatility?
Garman Klass is a volatility estimator that incorporates open, low, high, and close prices of a security. The Garman and Klass estimator for estimating historical volatility assumes Brownian motion with zero drift and no opening jumps (i.e. the opening = close of the previous period). This estimator is 7.4 times more efficient than the close-to-close estimator. Garman-Klass volatility extends Parkinson's volatility by taking into account the opening and closing price. As markets are most active during the opening and closing of a trading session, it makes volatility estimation more accurate. Garman and Klass also assumed that the process of price change is a process of continuous diffusion (geometric Brownian motion). However, this assumption has several drawbacks. The method is not robust for opening jumps in price and trend movements. Despite its drawbacks, the Garman-Klass estimator is still more effective than the basic formula since it takes into account not only the price at the beginning and end of the time interval but also intraday price extremums.
The Garman & Klass Estimator is as follows:
GKE = sqrt((Z/n)* sum((0.5*(log(high./low)).^2) - (2*log(2) - 1).*(log(close./open)).^2))
The color of the middle line, unlike the bands colors, has 3 colors. When colors of the bands are the same, then the middle line has the same color, otherwise it's white.

Average as the middle line.
Upper and lower bands using the Historical Volatility high/low (instead of "regular" Historical Volatility) for bands calculation.
What is Historical Volatility?
Historical Volatility (HV) is a statistical measure of the dispersion of returns for a given security or market index over a given period of time. Generally, this measure is calculated by determining the average deviation from the average price of a financial instrument in the given time period. Using standard deviation is the most common, but not the only, way to calculate Historical Volatility .
The higher the Historical Volatility value, the riskier the security. However, that is not necessarily a bad result as risk works both ways - bullish and bearish , i.e: Historical Volatility is not a directional indicator and should not be used as other directional indicators are used. Use to to determine the rising and falling price change volatility .
SH is stock's High price in t day.
SL is stock's Low price in t day.
High/Low Return (xt^HL) is calculated as the natural logarithm of the ratio of a stock's High price to stock's Low price.
Return:
And Parkinson's number: 1 / (4 * math.log(2)) * 252 / n * Σ (n, t =1) {math.log(Ht/Lt)^2}
An important use of the Parkinson's number is the assessment of the distribution prices during the day as well as a better understanding of the market dynamics. Comparing the Parkinson's number and periodically sampled volatility helps traders understand the tendency towards mean reversion in the market as well as the distribution of stop-losses.
