Topic: 100 day Historical Volatility

If I understand the ratio, I would think even for ETF's it could exceed 1.  If a stock or ETF becomes more volatile, then the shorter period would exceed the longer.   

Interesting concept you have.  I guess it is somewhat like Bollinger Bands?   It predicts a move but not the direction?

Glad it worked.

Math isn't at the top of my skills anymore, but I would adapt the 6/100 by stopping at the 25 point and adjusting the final divisors to 25/25 rather than 100/100.

Are you using these for option trading?  Or looking at cross-overs of the shorter term?  Or something else?

You might take a look here:  http://forums.worden.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=1866

I've just gotten into Stockfinder, but it appears that the formula you have for it is logarithmic, while the TC formula you are using is merely an average of the range for 100 days.   So I would try the one I have noted above to see if the results are closer.

Greg,

Thanks for the response.

I already have real time intraday charts through brokerage platforms, so I was looking for more detail as to what else would be provided by Platinum. I am primarily selling overvalued stocks short on a very short term holding -- less than a day to a week or two, although I also trade from the long side in my non-marginable IRA account.

Is there much activity from the short seller's side in Platinum?

What specificaly do you feel you get at this point?

Thanks.

Mark

I'm thinking of upgrading to Platinum service on a trial basis. I don't see many users of Platinum service posting here. Are there any opinions available?
