look no further than 14 day average true range, 20 day StdDev, or the CBOE VIX
index. Perhaps you are looking for something other than volatility.

Earl,
Couldn't agree with you more.
The indicators that I use to monitor (not caslulate the underlying market
voliltility show a significant increase here recently.
The bottom indicator on the attached chart is a specific example.
It is simply the difference in the "myprice" vrs Xbar centerline indicators
previously supplied. The yellow lines are +/2 standard deviation lines from a
centerline of "0'" based on the de-trended data going back to 1990.
As you can see these numbers are showing much more "flex" than usual.
As a trader, you gotta love it.
Terry
