I hope this discussion continues. I have never really looked
at scanning for volatility before but it certainly makes sense. Reading the MS
manual about ATR and volatility leaves me more than a little confused.
1. Is it correct that an ATR level that is high for one stock
will not be high for another (therefore difficult to scan).
2. I read in one place that low volatility is associated with
bottoms and in another place that low volatility indicates an approaching top.
Can't be both, can it?

I'm fond of ATR and easy to write scans using
ATR.

Indicator?
I'm interested in refining my scans by filtering for
stocks that regularly move enough to make a swing trade worth my while.
On the one hand I want volatility, but on the other hand not too much
volatility. I like stocks that move in a somewhat orderly
fashion.I'm hoping some of you technophiles will have some
suggestions. So what would be a good indicator to add to my filter and
experiment with? Beta?
ATR?Thanks,HaroldTo unsubscribe from
