Daily ATR range for intraday chart / history

  Hello everyone,

  I’m already using the indicator “Daily ATR range for intraday chart” from Nicolas. It works great.

  Now I would love to do some backtesting with the code, but the code is only working for the current day. Can anyone help me to create the same indicator for history?

  Thanks a lot

  Hello Nicolas,

  this is the code:

  Here is the modified code, of course since the daily ATR changes during the day, the lines can change in a highly irregular way.

  Be sure to have at least “ATRperiod” days of history for the calculation to be made correctly.
