Market Volatility Key: CHOP, ATR, VIX & 10Y Bond

10월 6일

This script builds upon existing market analysis tools by providing a comprehensive dashboard that combines the Choppiness Index (CHOP), Average True Range (ATR) with a user-selectable timeframe, VIX (Volatility Index), and the 10-year US Treasury bond price in a compact tile format. The color-coded key provides quick visual cues for market conditions—highlighting whether the market is trending or consolidating—allowing traders to make informed decisions quickly.

For example, when trading the Nasdaq (NQ), you might use this indicator to help manage your scalping trades. If you trade on a 10-minute chart but set the ATR timeframe to 1 minute, it helps identify whether there is enough price movement to justify entering a trade. If the ATR is less than 10, it suggests there's not enough range for scalping opportunities, and you may choose to stay out of the trade.

This expanded indicator integrates and enhances existing concepts to deliver a well-rounded view of volatility, trend strength, and market conditions all in one glance, making it an essential tool for both trend-following and scalping strategies.
