Average True Range

Description

The Average True Range (ATR) is an indicator that measures volatility. A volatility formula based only on the high-low range would fail to capture volatility from gap or limit moves. Wilder created Average True Range to capture this "missing" volatility. It is important to remember that ATR does not provide an indication of price direction, just volatility.

@huimang, you can add 'ScalePrecision = 5' to the [Indicator] - line in order to more precise the result [Indicator(IsOverlay = false)] => [Indicator(IsOverlay = false, ScalePrecision = 5)]
