Parkinson's Historical Volatility for MT4

35
This is the MT4 version of the Parkinson's Historical Volatility indicator coded by Mladen.

As explained by Mladen:
The Parkinson's number, or High Low Range Volatility developed by the physicist, Michael Parkinson in 1980, aims to estimate the Volatility of returns for a random walk using the High and Low in any particular period. IVolatility.com calculates daily Parkinson values. Prices are observed on a fixed time interval: n = 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 days.

  • SH is stock's High price in t day.
  • SL is stock's Low price in t day.
  • High/Low Return (xtHL) is calculated as the natural logarithm of the ratio of a stock's High price to stock's Low price.
  • Return:
  • And Parkinson's number:

An important use of the Parkinson's number is the assessment of the distribution prices during the day as well as a better understanding of the market dynamics. Comparing the Parkinson's number and periodically sampled volatility helps traders understand the tendency towards mean reversion in the market as well as the distribution of stop-losses.

ATR Averages indicator

36
Tonight i'm sorting through our TSD files again and posting indicators and files that we're still missing. Here is the standalone ATR Averages indicator with Multi-timeframe mode + Interpolation & Averages (Including Super Smoother & Non Lag). It's in the old school coding format and hasn't been made user-friendly yet by Mrtools but it works really well and the MTF mode is spot-on :P

Volatility Ratio

39
This is a particular indicator which was recently coded by Mladen for MT4 and looks like a great creation.

As explained by Mladen:
Theory :

There is always a need to measure if the market is "quiet" or it is volatile. One of the possible way is to use standard deviations, but the issue is simple : we do not have some levels that could help us find out if the market is in a state of lower or higher volatility. This indicator is attempting to do that :

  • values above level 1 are indicating state of higher volatility
  • values above level 1 are indicating state of lower volatility

Usage :

This is not a directional indicator. It should be used for volatility detection, not trend assessment - for that you have to use some other indicator and then check this one if the market volatility conditions are those that you expect
