D ATR - Indicator for Sierra Chart
By popular request — many traders have asked for D ATR Levels in Sierra Chart after seeing the renowned trader Tom Dante use it. Responding to the demand, Trading Edge Resources has fully re-engineered this tool in native ACSIL for clean execution and professional workflows.
🔍 How It Works
D ATR Levels calculates daily volatility-based support and resistance using Average True Range (ATR). By combining ATR with a selectable reference price (Daily Open, Previous Close, Daily Mid, Yesterday Mid, or Yesterday Close), the tool plots high and low levels that adapt to market volatility in real time.
📐 Why These Levels?
Daily ATR levels provide objective, performance-tested zones that reflect true market dynamics, making them particularly useful for:
- Spotting high-probability reversal zones
- Identifying breakout or continuation levels
- Setting volatility-aligned stop-loss and take-profit targets

Note / Tips:
By default, this study uses ATR Period 14 (or 20) with a Multiplier of 1.0.
You can, however, add multiple instances of the indicator on the same chart with different multipliers — e.g., 0.5, 1.0, 1.2 — to create additional D ATR levels.
These multiple levels are widely used by intraday and swing traders to spot high-probability support/resistance zones.
