Hi cs --

And with a little more detail --

On the AmiBroker Charts menu, expand Indicators, scroll down to ATR, right click ATR, select Edit.  The Formula Editor will open and display the formula for that indicator.

In the case of ATR, that is probably no help to you, since you will see this:

periods = Param( "Periods", 15, 1, 200, 1 );
Plot( ATR(periods), _DEFAULT_NAME(), ParamColor( "Color", colorCycle ), ParamStyle("Style") );

Tomasz has coded the calculation into a built-in function named ATR.

To get more information about ATR, including the formula for the ATR, then do this:
while in the Formula Editor, pull down the Help menu, type ATR and click List Topics.  The documentation for the ATR function is displayed, including a reference that will describe ATR:
http://stockcharts.com/education/IndicatorAnalysis/indic_ATR.html

Follow that link to an excellent description of ATR, including charts, methods of calculation, and formulas.

Thanks,
