Normalized ATR

Plain-language meaning

XMarketRadar expresses Wilder ATR as a percentage of the same bar's positive close; it is unavailable for a zero or missing close.

Why it is useful

Normalized ATR is useful as descriptive evidence when it is compared on the same definition, source, period, unit and exact listing. It is one input to research, not a verdict.

Where it appears in XMarketRadar

Look for Normalized ATR in Advanced Chart settings, indicator panels, screeners and technical research for the selected listing and bar interval.

How it is calculated or sourced

XMarketRadar calculates NATR = Wilder ATR / close × 100 on the same bar. It is unavailable when close is missing or not positive.

Inputs, period and unit

Read the disclosed inputs or source, observation period, bar interval, unit, native currency and scale. A value without its source and as-of context is incomplete; unlike units must not be combined.

Worked example

Illustrative only: Wilder ATR of CU 2 with a same-bar close of CU 100 gives NATR of 2%; a zero close remains unavailable.

What high and low mean

A higher or lower Normalized ATR value is descriptive, not automatically good or bad. Meaning depends on the instrument, comparison period, method and related evidence.

Positive, negative and genuine zero

Positive and negative Normalized ATR values retain the definition shown here. A genuine reported or computed zero is displayed as 0 and is not the same as missing evidence.

When it is unavailable

Unavailable (—) means Normalized ATR is absent, unsupported, stale under the screen's rules or not computable from verified inputs. It must never be converted to zero or a neutral signal.

Limitations and common mistakes

Normalized ATR may differ by provider definition, observation time, instrument and venue. Common mistakes are dropping units or dates, comparing unlike scopes, and treating a missing value as zero.

Market-specific differences

The concept is used across all supported markets, but currency, price scale, session calendar, source field and regulatory definition can differ. XMarketRadar preserves the exact exchange context.
