OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Relative Range at Time/ Relative volatility / High−Low
Updated
This script is designed to help you compare the size of the current price candle (the difference between the highest and lowest prices in a given time period) to the average size of the last several candles. It does this by calculating the average range of a certain number of previous candles (you can set how many with the "Length" input) and then dividing the current candle's range by this average. The result is plotted on the chart as a bar: if the current candle's range is larger than the average, the bar is green; if it's smaller, the bar is red. A horizontal line is also drawn at the value of 1, so you can easily see whether the current candle's range is above or below the average. If there’s an issue with the data, the script will show an error message to let you know.
