Average True Range Candles

Important Update for RobotFX Visitors

We want to sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused by our recent website restructuring.

The main RobotFX hub has officially moved to our new, streamlined address at robotfx.org (without the "www" prefix). While our main operations have shifted, we want to reassure you that this archives site, old.robotfx.org, will remain fully active. You can still access our complete library of past posts, historical trading analysis, and legacy articles right here.

However, for the latest updates, newer content, and a significantly faster, more optimized browsing experience, we highly recommend heading over to our primary home at https://robotfx.org.

Thank you so much for your continued support and patience as we improve our digital services.

The Average True Range (ATR) indicator for MetaTrader will paint the candles on the chart according to the ATR indicator. The settings for the ATR indicator candles can be set by the trader. In the example below, the ATR indicator has the values:

Same chart without the ATR Candles indicator

The trader can also set the ATR candles color and, if choosing color 'none' for the ATR line indicator, to hide it (as seen above).
The ATR Candles indicator can be used to understand how the price moves and show the swings that the price forms. With the correct settings for the current chart and time frame, it can be successfully used to enter/exit trades based on the color as it can show exactly when the price reverses.
