Base Volatility

This indicator monitor changes in market price and compare them to historical values. The indicator based on standard deviation computed from the past (historical) prices. It means that the faster the price in the market changes, the higher is the volatility of that market. In case the market price starts to change faster than would be appropriate according to the average of historical volatility or if the price crosses outside of a given range, the indicators will signal an oversold/overbought market.
The indicator has several parameters that you can change. To change the parameters, select the indicator from the client terminal under VTL local scripts , right click and choose” Modify the script”. You can change the fast period, slower period, scale factor and method of calculating moving averages, which are used to calculate the value of the indicator.

Purpose And Use

The purpose of volatility-based indicators is very similar to the purpose of oscillators, to detect imbalances in the market and generate signals that can help us capitalize on these imbalances. These indicators also generate overbought/oversold signals.
If the price is rising too fast compared to the historical prices, it can easily reach a stage in which the rise is no more sustainable. Volatility–based indicators inform us precisely about such situations.

Trading Signals

A common trait of all volatility-based indicators is that they generate buy and sell signals that are based on the concept of overbought/oversold market. In case the price crosses above the upper bound of the range, in which it should be present according to the trends in historical data, a sell signal is generated. Conversely, if the price crosses under the lower bound of the range, a buy signal is generated.
