Louis, >Does anyone know if it is possible to get an absolute value ATR?
The Abs() function serves that purpose but I think you mean something else. ATR is a measure of volatility and it is specific for each stock (or instrument). The whole idea of it (AFAIK) is to use it on an individual stock basis. It can be useful to compare volatility: 1) internally e.g. against an average of the last (x) days OR against the StDev (standard deviation) of the volatility measure OR just use StDev of the Close etc on its own. StDev() function does allow to change the setting between 1 or 2 etc 2) externally to the volatility of the market OR a sector that the stock is a member of OR compared to another stock in the same sector etc. brian_z --- In [email protected], Graham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > you could try a percentage type > > ATR(10)/ref(c,-1)*100 > > -- > Cheers > Graham Kav > AFL Writing Service > http://www.aflwriting.com > > > On 24/02/2008, louisprefontaine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Does anyone know if it is possible to get an absolute value ATR?
