 Is there an easy way to get the average dollar price swing range in a month ?
 
 with ATR(30), this only gives me an average daily swing range over a 30 day period.
 
 Does there exist a measure for a monthly range so if it was called AMR , then AMR(12)  would be the average monthly range taken over 12 months ?
 
 I am looking to define a monthly range so that I can  use this for an option trade .Help me to  know if the strike prices might be too narrow or enough.
 
 Thanks

 Hi
 Not sure this is what you want
 
 
 
 
 This will get you the monthly total range.
 22 days trading in most months.
 
 See ya

 Using your range statement , I have this below, but this filter gives no results
 
 SF [set {range1, high 22 day high minus low 22 day low}
 set {range2, high 44 day high minus low 44 day low}
 set {range3, high 66 day high minus low 66 day low}
 set {avgrange, (range1+range2+range3) divided by 3}
 average volume(60) is above 500000 and
 adx(30) is below 20 and
 stock is optionable and
 add column atr(90)
 add column weekly RSI(2) and
 add column avgrange]
 
 I think there is a problem with this line
 
 set {avgrange, (range1+range2+range3) divided by 3}
 
 Any ideas ?
