Measuring volatility, and adapting your EA

[vgoklani14]

Hi,

I was just curious, how do you most of you measure volatility in Forex? Do your EAs adapt in real-time as the volatility changes?

what is volatility for you?

Volume? Range?

In my point it's a big mistake to calculate one volatility value per chart, instead two should be caluclated,

i.e:

VolaTrending=x

VolaRanging=x

an EA is allready an adaptive EA once you use ATR/BollingerBands in the calculations.
