Use 0 not null, change the atr period to 3. Null seems to have a
value of - 4 billion, at least that is what I saw when I put the
cursor on the null part of the chart.
First3=IIF(hour()<10, atr(3),0); // this array holds the atr of the
first three hours
Restofday=IIF(hour()>=10,atr(3),0); // this array holds the atr of
rest of the hours
atravg3=ma(First3,30); //calculates the 30 period average of the atr
obtained during the first three hours
atrmovaveragerR=ma(restofday,30);
plot(First3, "First3", colorblue);
plot(atravg3, "atravg3", colorred);
plot(Restofday, "Restofday", colorgreen);
plot(atrmovaveragerR, "atrmovaveragerR", colorblack);
