# Mobius
# V01.08.22.2020
# Notes: Chart data must be intraday. Extended Hours must be turned on. Chart data must include the data needed to calculate the highest Average True Range (10 days of data to calculate a 10 day Average True Range). For lower aggregations (5 minute and less) Settings > Price Axis > Fit Studies may need to be checked yes to show ATR Daily limit lines. If using on a thinly traded equity there may not be a trade at the RTH open and the Daily Implied Move may not plot for that day.
# Study Limitation: Average True Range is an average of the averaged bars range. Tying that average to any fixed point on a bar makes the erroneous assumption that the range is equal distance from that point. This study divides ATR in half and plots half above and half below the open of whatever aggregation period the user inputs. In order to keep chart clutter at a minimum the study plot only the most recent range. If the expansion area is set wide enough for the next period open to display then lines will begin plotting in the expansion area instead of at the current price bar.

Join useThinkScript to post your question to a community of 21,000+ developers and traders.

It seems to produce the same levels as the Mobius script from years ago that was called "Implied and probable moves for futures"

I wonder if this is an updated version so it doesn't need to go based off of the options(can cause some issues on some stocks/futures to give -99999 value) .
