Volatility Calculator for Daily Top and Bottom Range

With the usage of ATR, applied on the close of the daily candle, I am calculated the volatility channels for the TOP and BOTTOM

Based on this logic, we can estimate, with a huge confidence factor, where the prices are going to be compressed for the trading day.

Having said that, lets take a look at the data gathered among the most important financial markets:

SPX
TOP CROSSES : 2116
BOT CROSSES : 1954
Total Daily Candles : 18908
Occurance ratio = 0.215

TOP CROSSES : 1212
BOT CROSSES : 1183
Total Daily Candles : 9386
Occurance ratio = 0.255

Total Daily Candles : 6109
Occurance ratio = 0.25

US 10Y

Based on this, we can assume with a very high confidence ( 70-80%) that the market is going to stay, within the range created from the BOT and TOP ATR points.
