Trend or Range

Old conventional theory says when StdDev above ATR then market trending.
I say this idea may be OK for stocks & commodites but for the harmonics of Forex market we need something quicker and clearer. Also never forget time of day in relation to the pairs main movements.
Yellow = StdDev
Aqua = ATR
Red = Smoothed Moving Average of the StdDev
Usage:
Any pair, any time frame. Best used on majors and M15 period or higher
Yellow breaks above Red when below Aqua = Trend building
Yellow breaks below Red when above Aqua = Trend exhausting
Yellow below Red when below Aqua = Ranging/Sideways market
