Volatility Expansion
Captures the transition from consolidation into a trending move.
How it works
Volatility Expansion leans on the ATR_Oscillator indicator to watch for a market compressing into a tight range and then expanding out of it, aiming to catch the move as volatility picks up from an unusually quiet base rather than chasing a breakout that's already extended.
It's built specifically for that consolidation-to-expansion transition, so it's naturally quieter in markets that stay volatile throughout, and more active around genuine compression phases.
Best for: Markets coming out of a tight consolidation range - for example the quiet period that often precedes a scheduled news release.
