Reading this window

The projection called for Average True Range to rise across the window, and it rose. The market travelled further than projected — the projection covered only 0.64 times the realised distance. Bar to bar, 69% of the moves ran the same way as the projection, and 29 of the 30 bars finished on the projected side of the opening reading. One window is a single observation, not a pattern; it is published here so the projection and the outcome can be checked against each other.

How the window developed

The two paths were closest at bar 22 (6:15 PM ET), where they sat 0.113012 apart, and furthest at bar 0 (9:36 PM ET) with a gap of 2.58492. The largest single bar change in the recorded values came at bar 22 (7:14 PM ET), a move of +0.361006. The projected and recorded paths crossed at least once inside the window.

About Average True Range on a 59 minute chart

Average True Range measures how much ground a market covers per bar. It describes volatility, not direction, so a rising ATR means wider bars rather than higher prices. On the 59 minute timeframe a 30 bar projection covers 29.5 hours of trading, so the window above describes 29.5 hours of Micro E mini Nasdaq 100 activity rather than a single print.
