ATR VTL is a VertexFX client side VTL indicator. It is similar to the Average True Range Indicator (ATR), but it splits the true range of a bar into bullish and bearish ranges.

Then it calculates the bullish and bearish Average True Range and plots the bullish ATR as green line and bearish ATR as red line. ATR is a measure of underlying volatility in the market.

However the ATR VTL indicator splits the volatility into bullish and bearish volatility. Thus the trader gets a better understanding of the volatility conditions for upward and downward price moves and improve the stop loss and take profit levels further.When a buy trade is opened and bullish volatility is higher than bearish volatility, trader can place comparatively large take profit level than the stop loss level. Similarly when the bearish volatility is higher than bullish volatility, for a buy trade, comparatively larger stop loss should be used. With ATR VTL indicator, trader can avoid such low risk reward ratio trades.
The indicator can be customized through the parameters. ATR period determines the range to calculate the bullish and bearish ATR. With “show Bull” and “show Bear” parameters, the display of bullish and bearish ATR can be switched on or off.
