Average True Range (ATR %) Stop Loss CalculatorThis indicator takes the average of a series of ATR to calculate what I would consider an optimum stop loss placement represented in percentage (read below for full overview).
While the data is plotted what is most helpful are the actual numbers presented and for my charts I remove most of the plotting.
This indicator is most helpful on the daily timeframe but can be used for all timeframes such as the 4HR, 1HR or even 15M.
This indicator should not be used alone. It should be used in conjunction with proper price action analysis. It’s also a great indicator if you chart using Value Channels. Ideally you want your stop placement to be below at least one core Value Channel boundary range. In addition to standard support and resistance and some key moving averages the market respects. This also works best when trading with the prevailing BIAS of the instrument (bull or bear).
Cryptos: Generally, that means you’re buying on retracements that fit the end of a structured move. The other option is using this in a clear up trending market where the pull backs are clearly being supported with buying.
FOREX: I built another indicator for FOREX search: ATRPIPS with SL
WTI: Helpful but I have different rules for when I trade WTI. I rely upon VCs and diagnal VCs much more when trading this.
Equities: Helpful but with the increase of volatility as well as uncertainty of Bias of the market-- this should be used as more of a guide than
What is most important is the actual percentage numbers but I've found graphing 1-3 of the actual ATRs is helpful. The rest just uncheck the checkbox in the options.
Indicator Overview:
Value 1 - 3 Period ATR (maroon)
Value 2 - 7 Period ATR (green)
Value 3 - 30 Period ATR (blue)
Value 4 - 90 Period ATR (blue, bold)
Value 5 - 1 Period ATR (green)
Value 6 - 1 Period ATR (red)
Value 6 – Prime Stop Loss Placement (maroon). This is the average of all above ATRs multiplied by 1.5
Value 7 - Move Left (red). Experimental value. This is the difference between (prime stop loss) and 1 day period move. Two ways to use this value. Use as a tighter stop loss placement. The other option is to use as a retrace target for purchase and using the Prime Stop Placement value as you’re stop loss.
All ATRs use the LOW price of the period. After testing both the low and close I’ve settled on the low to capture the most volatility you will typically experience.
Once again, this indicator should be used in conjunction with your proven trade system.
Also, by knowing what the values are within the indicator you could just eye ball what would be the best stop placement depending on the ATR or 1 or 2 ATRs you find most represent the volatility of what you are trading.
I will be expanding on this indicator by bringing in average measured moves as well as volume analysis and most likely with color changes and modifications.
Background:
While using and refining my trade system I've noticed that most moves happen in 3 periods. So we start there. The 7 period is good for a 24 hour market such as crypto (although weekend trading can be a hit or miss) and to some extent FOREX. The longer periods of 30 & 90 are to smooth out the data set. The final value of the 1 period is to bring a little more recency to the calculation.
Why multiply the average by 1.5? I've found in my own trading and system I built to be the best placement (in conjunction with VCs) to ensure you're stop isn't to close and is within the instrument you are trading volatility .
I'm looking at making this more intelligent as well as take into account volume and structured moves.
真实波动幅度均值(ATR)
ATR Pips with Stop LossThis indicator shares ATR pips and a calculated 1.5 x stop loss calculation.
1st number is ATR.
2nd number is ATR x 1.5 (a typical SL when trading daily time frame).
The plot lines are really not that important- it's the actual numbers.
What I do is uncheck the plot line checkboxes (ATR & SL) so it doesn't show up, that way I can reduce the indicator window.
This script is a modified script by ATR Pips . Kept the BB section for now as it might be useful, but doubt it.
Future updates:
- editable the multiple for SL
- static daily numbers (right now this shows the timeframe you are viewing, I'd keep that but add a static daily ATR so you have both)
ATR+VWAP Alert//These signals mostly consist of crossovers between a 13 VWMA and a 62 VWMA. I've found these two moving averages to be quite special in their ability to
//recognize a quick trend using volume data. The VWAP is used in the alert system as well, to give some perspective on which direction we are looking to take. We
//are also using ATR. We only take trades when the ATR is on the move, meaning we have a chance to catch a volatile move! Finally, we use RSI to help weed out bad
//trades. We only take 'longs' with bullish readings from RSI, and we only take 'shorts' with bearish readings from RSI. These alerts are fantastic for catching quick intraday
//trades in either direction. I recommend using a small 'take profit' target rather than using an exit indicator. These trades can move 20-30 pips and reverse just as quickly. Good luck!
//How To Use:
//When the alert system is added to the chart, you will notice up/down symbols appear at various locations. For bullish alerts, right click an 'Up' symbol and choose 'Add Alert on VWap & ATR..'
//There are two condition options. 'Long/short', and right below that 'Buy-Signal/Sell-Signal'. Choose 'long' and 'Buy-Signal'. At options, choose 'Once Per Bar Close'. Design your alert, and you're good to go.
//For bearish signals, find a 'down' signal on the chart. Right click and follow the same process, except choosing 'short/Sell-Signal' conditions.
Tips:
Use VWAP as a stop-loss. If a candle closes below/above the VWAP in the direction against you.. get out of the trade. The losses will be minimal and few compared to the wins. Use discretion and trade carefully. This works great with crypto. Invent your own exit. If you come up with a clever exit, please share!

RSI ATR ChannelDraws a channel based on ATR (Average True Range) and RSI. Detects band touches and colors the background appropriately.
RENKO strategyStandard simple strategy RENKO. Entry on the first reversing bar. No repaints. Caution arrows when price crossing RENKO levels
EASY SYSTEMSo how to use this very easy system
we have two system the first is based on ATR resistance and support and the other based on % channel based on donchian channel
The black line is the price line
The red lines are % line of the donchian channel (here it set to 2 and 3 % (you can set it any number you want ) this lines are the low end
Theblue d lines are % line of the donchian channel (here it set to 2 and 3 % (you can set it any number you want ),this lines are upper end
you look at the resistance and the support of the ATR and on the % channel
lets say you decide to go long -best if it in lower end of your % channel you can either set alert if price crossup the lower % line that you set
and you can make take profit if it reach the target level by % of the line of your choice
oposite you do in shorting
using the build in alert in TV you can make your trade more easy setting the target in more logical way

Breakout/Consolidation Filter [jwammo12]This indicator acts as a filter for determining recent breakouts and consolidations in price.
The first way to use the indicator is with a short lookback period. It then will paint yellow most of the time, with red marking a sharp recent breakdown in price and green marking a sharp breakout in price. This can be used to follow the breakout, or to fade it.
The second way to use the indicator is a long lookback period. This will change the output to be colored most of the time, with small sections of yellow. The yellow indicators areas where price has not made a large move in a while, or periods of consolidation. This can then be used to plan reversal trades, or follows any new trend.
The blue line is a Average True Range Percent Rank, when this value is high, it means that breakouts are less likely to trigger, since price has been moving rapidly recently, and a relative breakout would have to be a large move. When the line is low, breakouts will trigger more easily, since price has been moving relatively slowly
Volatility SL / TPBasic volatility Stop Loss / Take Profit you can use up to 3 TPs and one SL.
Currently, support the following modes.
- Multiple of Tradingview ATR
- Kases Dev-stop
Normalized Average True RangeThis indicator was originally developed by John Forman (Stocks & Commodities, V.24:6 (May, 2006): "Cross-Market Evaluations With Normalized Average True Range").
Mr. Forman uses a normalized average true range indicator to analyze tradables across markets.
Good luck!
Daily ATR CaveSimilar to the RSI Cave idea, this plots daily Average True Range values on lower timeframes, as well as the daily open level, which is show as a grey dotted line. Basically a simple way to visualise basic mean reversion stuff
Average True Range (ATR) Percent RankThis indicator simply takes the Average True Range and applies the Percent Rank function to normalize the values from 0 to 100. This creates an output that can be easily used as a filter for trading strategies with normalized values across any symbol
