Tom,

Is this documented somewhere? Found it in your ATR example.

-----------------------------------
Average True Range

Parameters Period

Usage Average True Range(days)
ATR(days)

Description Using the relationships between the high and low of a day compared with the previous close, the Average True Range is a measure of volatility developed by Welles Wilder. Typically used to identify oversold and overbought conditions, a low average true range indicates a stock which lacks volatility, while high average true range indicates potentials sell-offs of a stock.

Examples Average True Range(14) has been increasing for 5 days
ATR(14) has been increasing for 3 days lag 2 days and the ATR(14) has been decreasing for 2 days

Lag is similar to the phrase "days ago" phrase. I added a description in this document:

Here is a very simple example:

Fetcher[
close equals 1 lag 10
]



Fetcher[
close equals 1 10 days ago
]
