Most beginners guess their take-profit…
2%, 5%, or just whenever it “feels right.”
But smart traders use volatility-based logic — like the ATR indicator 🧠
Let’s walk through how to use ATR to set realistic profit targets 👇
⸻
🔍 What Is ATR?
ATR = Average True Range
It tells you how much a coin typically moves in a day (or candle)
🟢 High ATR = big swings
🔵 Low ATR = slow mover
It doesn’t show direction — it shows volatility
⸻
⚙️ Step-by-Step: How to Use ATR for Profit Target
1. Open Your Chart (e.g., 1H or 4H timeframe)
Add ATR indicator from the toolbar
Use default setting (14)
2. Check the ATR Value
If ATR = 0.022, that means the coin moves around 2.2% per candle (on average)
3. Multiply It By 1.5x or 2x
That’s your smart TP range
→ 2.2% x 2 = 4.4%
→ Set your TP around that — it’s realistic, not greedy
4. Match With Market Structure
Confirm that your TP isn’t inside a strong resistance zone
Combine logic + volatility = 🔑

🪙 Try It With $CTSI
• $CTSI currently shows ATR around 0.018 on 1H — so expect ~1.8% moves
• Set TP at 3.5–4% max on breakout trades
Plot it on TradingView or Binance chart, and practice watching how price respects those ranges 👀
⸻
💡 Pro Tip:
• Use ATR to set stop-loss too!
→ SL = 1x ATR under entry (for long trades)
→ This keeps your R:R consistent and avoids tight stops

No more guessing TP.
Use ATR = trade with precision and confidence 🎯
