ADR% / ATR / LoD dist. Table - V2ADR% / ATR / LoD Distance Table (V2) + ATR Range Lines is a simple “daily volatility dashboard” that helps you quickly judge how extended a stock is during the day and where “normal” daily movement zones sit relative to price.
It’s designed to help you answer:
“Has this stock already made most of its usual daily move?”
“Am I chasing too late?”
“Where are typical +ATR / −ATR stretch and pullback zones?”
What you’ll see
ADR% (Average Daily Range %)
Shows the stock’s typical daily travel (low → high) as a percentage.
Example: ADR% = 4% means the stock often swings ~4% in a normal day.
ATR (Average True Range)
Shows the stock’s typical daily movement in price units ($ / points).
Example: ATR = 2.50 means it often moves about $2.50 per day.
LoD dist. (Low of Day distance)
Shows how far price is from today’s Low of Day, measured relative to ATR (as a %).
Higher % = more extended away from the day’s low.
Optional: ATR Range Lines (added in this version)
You can enable two guide lines that extend to the right:
ATR Up Line = Price + ATR
ATR Down Line = Price − ATR
These act like volatility guardrails to visualize “typical daily stretch” and “typical pullback” zones.
ATR “Live vs Locked” option (important)
Lock ATR to last completed day (no intraday updates):
ON (Locked): Uses the last completed daily ATR (yesterday’s finished value).
✅ ATR stays constant all day while the market is live.
OFF (Live): ATR can update intraday as today’s daily candle expands.
✅ ATR may change during the session.
Either way, ATR is still based on your chosen ATR Length (lookback period). Locking simply prevents the ATR from drifting intraday.
How to use it (Kullamägi-style principle)
Kristjan Kullamägi’s momentum style emphasizes pressing strength when conditions are right, but also respecting extension and risk/reward. This tool helps you quantify that:
If ADR%/ATR suggests the stock already moved near its usual daily range, chasing can be lower reward.
The ATR lines help you visualize when price is in a “normal stretch zone” vs a better risk area.
Locking ATR gives you stable intraday reference levels for cleaner execution.
Tips
Use ADR% to understand whether there’s likely “room” left in today’s move.
Use LoD dist. to quickly gauge if price is already far from the day’s low (extended).
Use ATR Up/Down Lines as a simple volatility framework for entries, add-ons, and risk planning.
Keep Lock ATR ON if you prefer stable levels throughout the session.
