ATR "Crossover"

[Mindset]

How can I plot the crossover as such of an ATR indicator? I have tried the following but when I copy the ATR code it's not plotting the correct values.
I just want a dot at the close where the atr shifts from one side to the other .
Any help much appreciated.
apologies for the crude pic but I have to use microsoft for NT and I am an apple man.

Hello Mindset,

Thanks for your post.

The ATR indicator does not plot in the price panel and its values are not the same as price values. The ATR plots are based on the average of the price range over the period specified.

When you add the indicator to the price panel you would have set the "Scale justification" to "Overlay" which provide a visual reference only and this reference changes as you change the time scale of the price panel which means if you expand or contract the time base of the chart you will see the crossing points that you noticed changing to completely different areas.

Thanks Paul
precisely. but the standard ATR doesn't do that - which is what I am trying to achieve.

Hello Mindset,

Thanks for your reply.

We will leave this thread open for any forum members to contribute any thoughts or ideas on how to make the ATR into a price panel indicator where you can then determine price crossover events.
