Chart Scan with Commentary: ATR
Hey Joe! I’ve been trying to figure out the correct way to program the Average True Range (ATR). Various charting programs seem to come up with different answers. Which one is the right one?
The Charting Software that I use, Genesis Trade Navigator, has two different ways to do it. I’m not sure which is which, but one of them is based on Welles Wilder’s original formula and the other way is based on their own in-house formula. It seems to me that the last two ways pictured above are the most correct. As you see above in the graphic that you sent, the first way if fine for a single day, but what would you do if prices gapped open either up or down? The first way above fails to take into consideration any gap that might occur. Going from the close to the next day’s high, or from the close to the next day’s low, at least takes into consideration any gap that might occur. However, there is yet another way not pictured above. It would be to measure from yesterday’s low to today’s high for a move up, or to measure from yesterday’s high to today’s low, to envision the correct amount of volatility in the price movement. Of course, why use only the close? Why not substitute from the Open to the low or high? I don’t know which is the correct way, and I don’t think anyone else knows it either. It seems to be a matter of opinion. The main thing for ATR is to be consistent in the way it is calculated.

The Russell 2000 is simply too easy to trade right now!
The Ambush trading method is specialised in catching intraday market tops and bottoms in a variety of Futures markets. Including the Russell 2000 Mini Future (RTY/M2K) traded at the CME, where Ambush Traders keep on cashing in big time again over the last couple of months!
Ambush day trades on an end-of-day basis so there’s no need to even check the markets during the day.
The Russell 2000 a very popular market out there among traders. It has two of the most important things private traders are looking for liquidity and volatility. I won’t even include a daily chart here as it does look quite boring. To keep it brief, the Russell is trading in a wide range for a long time now. Perfect conditions for Ambush and so this has paid out big time, here are all the recent trades:
Yes, that’s over $6000 within just three month and not even 20 trades! Which means Ambush traders made over $300 on average per trade doing nothing more than placing one entry order per day. I guess most active day traders made a lot less…but their brokers rich!
Now those are huge amounts if you have a small account and you might not want to make or lose hundreds or dollars per trade. Thanks to the new Micro Russell 2000 Mini Contracts (M2K) this is not an issue anymore. You can trade these with a small account now. Here are the results trading one M2K contract:
If that is not enough bang for the buck simply size it up and trade two contracts or three. It’s so great now you can position size as you like exactly matching your risk preferences!
In either case you have to ask yourself if you really can afford to miss out on these trades!
So whether you’re trading a $10k account or a $100k account, Ambush has the right markets for you to start following the signals.
Again, ask yourself if you really can afford to miss out on these trades or at least be aware of the signals? Now if you’ve been on the other sides of these trades trying to buy the breakouts you maybe should think about switching sides?
