The ATR Indicator Is The Single Best Indicator Forex Traders Can Have (Use It or Lose It)

[@scottyguy401]

I'm 3 months in to testing my system, and man the ATR is the best thing ever. I was skeptical when I first watched this video months ago about it being the best indicator in the world. I now understand how awesome it is using it for every trade. It has made me realize how barbaric my old ways of finding a profit target and stop loss target were

Another REALLY FUN thing about the ATR: You can easily call out the forex scammers. For example some telegram scammer will say : CADJPY ACHIEVED TARGET +320 PIPS, but then you look at the 10 day ATR and you can tell the pair didn't move more than 130 pips for the past 10 days, so when you message the scammer's ''support'' asking them where did those extra 190 pips came from, you end up getting blocked for some reason (true story, happened to me 2 days ago)🤣

[@rockefeller13]

Wow thats crazy

[@AJ-th6zc]

It's "average". It doesn't say how much it moved during the past 10 days, it says on average how much it did each day. So if 1 day it did 1000 pips and the rest of 9 days did 0 pips, the ATR is 100 pips. That doesn't mean it didn't move more than 100 pips

[@archravenineteenseventeen]

​@@AJ-th6zcthe fact he got blocked proves that the scammer is guilty asf

[@colorlessking.]

Lol

[@jaybhardwa9859]

What's so confusing? It just shows the average price of the last few candles so you know how much the market is moving. I'll give you an example. Let's say you're trading EUR/USD and the candles have all moved 80 - 100 pips in the last couple of days... well you definitely don't want to set a stop loss of 50 pips, you'll be wiped out in one candle. I'll give you another example. Let's say you're trading EUR/USD and the candles have all moved 40 - 50 pips in the last couple of days... well you definitely don't want to set a profit target of 500 pips, you'll probably never hit your target unless you're in a super trend and you'll probably blow your account. So to sum up the ATR lets you know the average size of candles at the moment so you can set proper stop loss and profit targets.

[@joshuawall4694]

This is actually a really helpful comment, thank you

[@CantGetRight911]

Never thought to use ATR for profiting. Normally, I review charts at a daily frequency in a year timeframe, identifying obvious S/R levels where candles frequently hit, and determine if my risk to rewards ratio make sense setting my stop lost @ 2% + atr value. Most of the time, this prevents me from being stopped out, taking profits where it makes sense. Good post!

You still reply the question from 5 years old video. That's shows your love to teach us trading! ❤

[@georgio318]

Keep it simple. Use a position size calculator. Enter your risk in $ amount, let’s say $100 is your risk per trade. Choose the pair you’re trading. Now use the ATR to identify the stop loss range in pips. Let’s say, 25 pips. Then you input the SL range and it will calculate your lot size. So for EUR/USD for example if you’re risking $100, and the SL value calculated using the ATR is 25, then you will arrive at 0.4 lots. Now you can split the 0.4 lots in any number of trades or just trade it as a single 0.4 lot trade. There you go. No need for any of these dollar per pip nonsense. Just use the calculator and you get the right lot size in 10 seconds.

You'll make it man. I'm 28 and I started trading late in 2016 with zero financial market experience, and I have begun to find my consistently profitable groove about 24 months in. I wish I'd started at 17. But I wasn't mature enough and had no mentors so I just kinda drifted for 10 years until I found this path and it changed my life. If you stay focused you'll be fine! Work hard, grind it out, watch videos like these, work on your discipline and your skill at reading charts and your understanding of edge, be patient and kind to yourself and you'll be killing it in 1-3 years almost guaranteed. You'll definitely have a head start on a lot of traders. Most traders fail because they don't put in the appropriate work. And most people don't put in the work because they either never find the right educators or are older and have other commitments/jobs/family, bad habits, bad conditioning and often not enough time to learn. At 17 you have plenty of time to put in the work! And if you're watching this video then you're on the right path, so if you keep your head down it really is just a matter of time.

Ive done a lot of work with ATR. Its a basic measure. I even used to trade bond futures using it as a part of a breakout system after rigorous back testing. It works ok for setting stops (particularly if you are aligned with the correct market momentum) but can often require wider stops which means less leverage when following money management rules. There are much better ways such as using defined support levels, fibbonaci levels etc which allow tighter stops. I use it as a last resort when those others are not available. Its def not the best and certainly doesnt need to be used for every trade for risk management. It is also used to assess the current volatility of a market in deciding which markets are profitable to trade.

[@garrensizer]

I love the ATR for setting stop-losses and lot sizing, but a word of caution... the internal MT4 (MQL4 language) iATR function does not calculate ATR the same way as its creator, Welles J Wilder. The true range calculation appears correct, but the smoothing appears to just be a simple moving average of [period] days. My other beef with it is if your MT4 platform is on GMT time, you’ll have a small Sunday candle that affects the ATR calculation. I rewrote my own ATR indicator based on the formulas in Welles J Wilder’s book, and I force it to ignore Sunday candles. The result is a much smoother ATR line, it runs about 10-20% higher than MT4’s ATR (because the small Sunday candles are ignored), and I can easily place my stop-loss at 1.0 ATR + spread for most pairs and still have plenty of breathing room. With these changes, I use a period of 10 (2 weeks worth of full trading days). Thanks, VP 👍🏼

[@TheTraderGuy]

You should base your trade size on where the stop loss goes. ATR doesn't matter - at least in that sense. Also, I have found a lot of luck in using it as a target. If ATR is currently 60 pips, then that could be the target, roughly. Also, you should think about your trading style/system. If you are a trend trader, then you need higher ATR pairs. If you are a range trader, then the slower pairs make the most sense. There are a million ways to use ATR. At the end of the day, if you are risking 1 percent, it doesn't matter if you use ATR as a level, or a price. One percent is one percent.

Testing the hell out of everything right now........let me give something back to you that I found yesterday (you probably knew anyway).........linking your ATR to the number 2 in the Algo produces amazing entry signals. Wouldn't have found that out without you VP!!!!! Massive thank you!!!!!!!!

[@lestonlall5896]

What is the 2 in the algo

[@renovatio322]

you mean linking the ATR with your baseline??

[@seymourminges6390]

@@renovatio322 Yep, I selected my baseline but when I messed with the settings and used ATR as settings value for that indicator is just turned it into a super indicator!!

[@hickman120]

@@seymourminges6390 Can you clarify what you mean by this? I've searched for some terms online but haven't found an explanation for what you're talking about. Can you provide a link where it discusses linking ATR to the 'baseline' please?

[@soufianecharif7714]

[@desiralhagger4034]

Like all other indicators, don't jump in too quickly, learn and understand ATR even though he talked around it. Thanks for the pip management tip.

it's an old video, but the message is still important. People talk about bs in their videos for varies reasons, but even if any of those gurus had any kind profitable trading method, they would not give it away. Consequently, watching those videos is pointless.

[@barbarajordan2698]

I still consider myself a beginner trader so I appreciate the slowness in your explanation of the ATR, however I didn't catch the point of how you determined how much to trade per pip. Would you explain please. Thank you

[@NoNonsenseForex]

Keep watching the videos. It's in the Risk episode.

I´m not sure I´m working out the ATR correctly. Finding the ATR on CMC Markets isnt easy. I´m not even sure I´m reading it correctly. Does this look about right? ATR Calculation * Work out risk from your account balance (2% in this situation) - Balance x 0.02 = 778 * ATR x 1.5 (19 x 1.5 = 28.5) Work Out Stop loss * Get price of last candle close (12,225 NDAQ) * 12,225 - 28.5 pips = 12,196 my stop loss Work out value of 1 pip * 2% risk of account balance, 778 / 28.5 = 27,29 price per 1 pip (28 rounded up)

[@dex203]

seems about right, think of it like this if that 1 pip( pip value = $28 ) moved 28 times (calculated stop loss ) how much money would that be. So the equation is $28 x 28.5 pips = $798 you would lose at stop loss which is roughly 2% (a little more because you rounded up)of your account.
