ADR Custom Indicator for cTrader

Description

Hiya! 

We have just released an innovative indicator exclusively designed for cTrader. 

Features

The ADR (Average Daily Range) indicator can:

  • Show the asset price average volatility over a certain period.
  • Compare the volatility strengths.
  • Record all the currency movements from the highest to the lowest peaks in every daily timeframe.
  • Predict price movements in intraday strategies.
  • Represent the market situation accurately.

Note! The formula adds up the price dynamics for each day of the week. It divides the received amount by the number of trading days. 

Note! All ADR values are indicated in ticks (not pips) when the text is placed vertically. While in the horizontal display, the additional arbitrary text is removed using the Label text parameter.


Parameters

We have equipped our indicator with more than 14 additional parameters. So, you can configure the indicator and customize the value display on the chart according to your needs and preferences!

Note! Try ADR on your demo account first before going live.
