calculate rth range and the average of the ranges over n days

[earlyinout]

I am trying to figure code/formula to be able to have an input that is the lenght of days to calculate the average daily range. Currently I am using this for a 10 day average , but I want to be able to look at many different periods.

def Time =
    GetTime()
;
def Start =
    RegularTradingStart(GetYYYYMMDD())
;
def First =
    Time > Start and Time[1] <= Start
;
def Opening =
    if First then open
    else Opening[1];

input BEG = "OPENINg";





input showOnlyToday = yes;

input timeFrame = {default DAY, "2 DAYS", "3 DAYS", "4 DAYS", WEEK, MONTH, "OPTEXP"};
def RangeHigh = high(period = "DAY")[0];
def RangeLow = low(period = "DAY")[0];
def Range = AbsValue(RangeHigh - RangeLow);
def Range2 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[1] - RangeLow[1]);
def Range3 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[2] - RangeLow[2]);
def Range4 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[3] - RangeLow[3]);
def Range5 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[4] - RangeLow[4]);
def Range6 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[5] - RangeLow[5]);
def Range7 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[6] - RangeLow[6]);
def Range8 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[7] - RangeLow[7]);
def Range9 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[8] - RangeLow[8]);
def Range10 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[9] - RangeLow[9]);
def Range11 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[10] - RangeLow[10]);
def Range12 = AbsValue(RangeHigh[11] - RangeLow[11]);


def multiRange = (range + range2 + range3 +RANge4 +RANge5 + Range6 + range7 + range8 + range9 )/10;

def ran2 = range3;


AddLabel(1, " RANGE 10 DAY avg  " + multiRange ,Color.gREEN);

Iknow there has to be a btter way, please help!

I am trying to get code to get rth range for x number of days and print as a label, I already have code to do this by def every day and then multiplying by the number of days. I know there has to be a more efficient way to do this!

input 18 # would be the number of days to sum the daily range of and create the average.

Please Help
Thanks

Yes I have been working with a solution to relative volume, and so I am also working on a script that should solve this.

In addition to knowing the breadth of the moves you would also probably like to know if there were unusual volumes and if those volumes tend to congest the order-flow or harmonize.
