[Metastockusers] Re: New Adaptive Tools for Metastock

Brad -- thanks for your reply. I guess I am unclear as to what I would
replace the 14 with. 

Say I use ATR(10) most of the time. In a particularly quiet market, it
might make sense to use ATR(20) since ATR(10) will produce an
uncharacteristically small number. So, I am "manually" adjusting the
lookback of the ATR to account for market personality.

With your product, what are the possible inputs besides 10, 14, 20,
etc., that I might feed to the ATR calculation?

Thanks.
