Realized Volatility (StdDev of Returns, %)
This indicator measures realized (historical) volatility by calculating the standard deviation of log returns over a user-defined lookback period. It helps traders and analysts observe how much the price has varied in the past, expressed as a percentage.

This indicator measures realized (historical) volatility by calculating the standard deviation of log returns over a user-defined lookback period. It helps traders and analysts observe how much the price has varied in the past, expressed as a percentage.
How it works:
- Computes close-to-close logarithmic returns.
- Calculates the standard deviation of these returns over the selected lookback window.
Provides three volatility measures:
- Daily Volatility (%): Standard deviation over the chosen period.
- Annualized Volatility (%): Scaled using the square root of the number of trading days per year (default = 250).
- Horizon Volatility (%): Scaled to a custom horizon (default = 5 days, useful for short-term views).
Inputs:
- Lookback Period: Number of bars used for volatility calculation.
- Trading Days per Year: Used for annualizing volatility.
- Horizon (days): Adjusts volatility to a shorter or longer time frame.
Notes:
- This is a statistical measure of past volatility, not a forecasting tool.
- If you change the scale to logarithmic, the indicator readibility improves.
- It should be used for analysis in combination with other tools and not as a standalone signal.
