Volatility Regime Dashboard

Real-Time Multi-Factor Volatility Analyzer for Crypto, Forex & Stocks

This indicator provides a structured, real-time volatility assessment using multiple market dynamics combined into a single regime-based verdict.

It is designed for traders in crypto, forex, and stocks who want a quick, objective read on whether the market is quiet, tradable, expanding, or explosive.

Instead of relying on one indicator alone, this dashboard evaluates volatility through range, deviation, volume expansion, session timing, and momentum-based expansion metrics, then produces a final regime classification:

Low | Normal | High | Extreme Volatility

📋 Table Parameters Explained

The table displays two columns:
Parameter | Value

Below is what each parameter means and how to interpret it:

1️⃣ ATR (Average True Range)

Measures how much price is moving per candle.

Higher ATR = wider price swings.

Rising ATR suggests expanding volatility.

Falling ATR suggests compression or range-bound conditions.

Use: Good for determining stop distance and scalping viability.

2️⃣ Standard Deviation

Measures how far price deviates from its average.

Expanding deviation indicates increasing momentum and instability.

Contracting deviation signals consolidation.

Use: Helps detect buildup before breakouts.

3️⃣ Bollinger Band Width

Represents volatility expansion or contraction.

Bands widening = volatility increasing.

Bands squeezing = compression phase.

Use: Ideal for breakout preparation across crypto, forex, and stock markets.

4️⃣ Volume Ratio

Current volume relative to its moving average.

Above 1.0 = above-normal activity.

Rising volume confirms genuine volatility expansion.

Use: Filters fake breakouts and low-liquidity moves.

5️⃣ Candle Range

Measures the high-low spread of the current candle.

Larger candles imply active participation.

Smaller candles indicate lack of conviction.

Use: Immediate micro-volatility reading.

6️⃣ Session (Tokyo / London / NY)

Markets behave differently across sessions:

Tokyo → Generally slower, range-based conditions.

London → Increasing momentum and liquidity.

New York (NY) → Often strongest volatility and directional moves.

Session weighting helps contextualize volatility behavior in forex, crypto, and global equities.

🔥 Final Verdict – How to Use It

The dashboard combines all metrics into a structured score and classifies the market into:

🟢 Low Volatility

🟠 High Volatility

Breakout or trend-following strategies favored

🔴 Extreme Volatility

🎯 Why This Indicator Is Useful

Instead of guessing whether the market is active or dead, this tool provides:

Structured multi-factor confirmation

Visual clarity via regime classification

Adaptability for crypto, forex, and stocks

Volatility-based trade filtering

It is ideal for:

Intraday traders

Scalpers

Breakout traders

Session-based traders

Algorithmic/system traders

🚀 Practical Usage Ideas

Trade only when verdict = High or Extreme

Reduce size when verdict = Normal

Avoid new positions during Low

Combine with trend or structure-based strategies

This indicator does not predict direction.
It helps you understand when conditions are favorable for movement.

Because in all markets — crypto, forex, or stocks —
timing volatility is as important as timing direction.
