Average True Range (ATR)

Definition

A volatility indicator that measures the average range between high and low prices over a period, accounting for gaps.

Example

If ATR(14) is $2.50, the asset typically moves $2.50 per day. This can be used to set appropriate stop-loss levels.

How Gilito AI Uses It

ATR is used in regime detection (ATR ratio helps classify volatile vs. calm markets) and for setting dynamic stop-loss levels in strategies.
