ATR Levels and Zones with Signals

๐ ATR Levels and Zones with Signals โ User Guide Description
๐น Overview
The ATR Levels and Zones with Signals indicator is a volatility-based trading tool that helps traders identify:
โ Key support & resistance levels based on ATR (Average True Range)
โ Buy & Sell signals triggered when price enters key ATR zones
โ Breakout confirmations to detect high-momentum moves
โ Dynamic Stop-Loss & Take-Profit suggestions
Unlike traditional ATR bands, this indicator creates layered ATR zones based on multiple ATR multipliers, allowing traders to gauge volatility and risk-adjust their trading strategies.
๐น How It Works
๐ธ The script calculates a baseline SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the price.
๐ธ ATR (Average True Range) is then used to create six dynamic price levels above & below the baseline.
๐ธ These levels define different risk zonesโhigher levels indicate increased volatility and potential trend exhaustion.
๐ ATR Zones Explained
๐น Lower ATR Levels (Buying Opportunities)
๐ Lower Level 1-2 โ Mild Oversold Zone (Potential trend continuation)
๐ Lower Level 3-4 โ High Volatility Buy Zone (Aggressive traders start scaling in)
๐ Lower Level 5-6 โ Extreme Oversold Zone (High-Risk Reversal Area)
๐น If price enters these lower zones, it may indicate a potential buying opportunity, especially if combined with trend reversal confirmation.
๐น Upper ATR Levels (Selling / Take Profit Zones)
๐ Upper Level 1-2 โ Mild Overbought Zone (Potential pullback area)
๐ Upper Level 3-4 โ High Volatility Sell Zone (Aggressive traders start scaling out)
๐ Upper Level 5-6 โ Extreme Overbought Zone (High-Risk for Reversal)
๐น If price enters these upper zones, it may indicate a potential selling opportunity or trend exhaustion, especially if momentum slows.
๐น Sensitivity Modes
๐น Aggressive Mode (More Frequent Signals) โ Triggers buy/sell signals at Lower/Upper Level 3 & 4
๐น Conservative Mode (Stronger Confirmation) โ Triggers buy/sell signals at Lower/Upper Level 5 & 6
๐ Choose the mode based on your trading style:
โ Scalpers & short-term traders โ Use Aggressive Mode
โ Swing & trend traders โ Use Conservative Mode for stronger confirmations
๐ How to Use the Indicator
๐น For Trend Trading:
โ Buy when price enters the lower ATR zones (especially in uptrends).
โ Sell when price enters the upper ATR zones (especially in downtrends).
๐น For Breakout Trading:
โ Breakout Buy: Price breaks above Upper ATR Level 3 โ Momentum entry for trend continuation
โ Breakout Sell: Price breaks below Lower ATR Level 3 โ Momentum short opportunity

๐ฏ Take-Profit: Suggested at Upper ATR Level 3 (for longs) or Lower ATR Level 3 (for shorts)
