This is the settings I used to calibrate the ADR.

I am thinking of using the indicator to get the AHR or the Average Hourly Range So I need to calibrate it first.

Thank you for your great time.

I need the AHR or the Average Hourly Range but I have no idea how to calibrate it.

So I use the ADR of your indi and compare it to other ADR indi.

If ADR values or the high/low range are the same, it means the calculation is correct and the Average Hourly Range calculation will also be correct.

But here there are some discrepancies.
Set the time frame to hourly then how many day/hours back you want to calculate.

Thank you sir.

If I only want the AHR or the Average Hourly Range.

What is the purpose of this MA's?

No purpose if setting ma length to 1. Also, you have a coder working on your indicator already, why do you need another?

I am very sorry because I am confused too.

Whenever I calibrate the indicator to other ADR indicator, they are not the same, so it means I cannot get the hourly range precisely.

I am very sorry for the misunderstanding I was hoping it can be viewed on other's perspective.

Then why not work with that original coder to get what you are seeking?

Thank you for your guidance. I will do.

I think I understand the problem.

The indicator is only applying ADR to H4 or H1.

The indicator is not averaging the previous H4 or H1 candles.

Just thought of a simple way to do this is do a mtf version of 2 period = 1 moving averages of high and low.

Never thought of that cause I am not a coder. Thank you for your idea sir. You're ingenuity is crucial in this site.
