There are zillions of volatility stops... 

for example, if day-to-day volatility is 5%, the stock is at 100, you could place a stop at 2*volatility at 90. If volatility was 2, the stop would be at 96. It is that easy.
You don't know the day to day volatility? Smile. Here some suggestions:

MOV(ROC(C,20,S)); or
MOV((H-V),20,S); or or or...
