ATR Ratio - VertexFX Indicator
How to Use ATR Ratio Indicator
The ATR ratio indicator does not generate trading signals, it is a confirmatory indicator. When a new trend begins, usually the indicator value climbs above one. Identify the direction of the trend from chart with the help of moving averages or trend lines and then initiate trades when the ATR ratio indicator climbs above one. The image shows a short trade setup. After a consolidation, price breaks below the moving average. As you can see in the area highlighted by vertical box, price remains below the MA and ATR ratio climbs above one. This is the ideal time to open a short trade.
When the ATR ratio falls below one and stays there, it is clearly telling that the trend has lost momentum. Open positions can be closed when this happens, and wait for the next breakout.
