⚡️ Episode 79: ATR Indicator – The strongest measure of market volatility! 🎯📊
Do you want to know when the market is calm and when it is volatile?
The ATR indicator gives you an accurate measure of volatility – and helps you determine when to enter and when to wait! ⏳🔥
📊 What does ATR mean?
Short for:
Average True Range
It means 'Average True Range' – it measures the difference between the highest and lowest price over a period.
The higher the ATR value → the more volatility
The lower it gets → the market is calm or sideways
💡 How to use the ATR indicator?
✅ Measure volatility:
Helps you understand the market condition – is there strong movement? Or stagnation?
✅ Set the Stop Loss:
ATR helps you place the stop loss away from noise
Example: If ATR = 0.02 → you can set the stop at 2% away
✅ Determine the position size:
Volatile market = higher risk → smaller trade
Calm market = lower risk → larger trade
🔥 Its best uses:
