ICT AI ATR Signals [TradingFinder]

🔵Introduction

In financial markets, two main factors always have the greatest impact on traders’ decisions: the direction of the trend and the level of price volatility. Although there are various tools to analyze each of these factors, very few indicators can combine them in a coordinated and simultaneous way.

The ICT AI ATR indicator has been designed with this purpose in mind, to provide a unified and comprehensive view of the market instead of relying on multiple scattered indicators.

This indicator is built upon two widely used tools: the Moving Average (MA) and the Average True Range (ATR). The combination of these two indicators allows traders to simultaneously track the trend direction and account for market volatility two elements that always play a decisive role in trading decisions.

In the structure of the indicator, the Moving Average acts as the central line and serves as the backbone of the tool. By calculating the average price over a defined period, the Moving Average filters out excess market noise and provides a clearer picture of the overall price movement.

This helps traders focus on the main trend instead of being distracted by minor and temporary fluctuations. The central line is thus the main reference point for identifying the trend direction.

Alongside this, the ATR is responsible for measuring the real volatility of the market. Unlike many tools that only look at closing price changes, the ATR considers the true range of candlestick movements, giving a more accurate view of market dynamics.

In the ICT AI ATR indicator, this feature is used to draw dynamic bands above and below the Moving Average line. These bands shift with changing market conditions and act like dynamic support and resistance levels, areas where strong price reactions often occur.

This combination allows traders not only to see the dominant market trend through the Moving Average but also to understand volatility and the natural price range via the ATR. For this reason, the ICT AI ATR identifies points that are likely to act as reaction or reversal zones, whether during bounces off the bands or breakouts through them.



With this structure, the trader can at a glance:

• Identify the overall market direction using the Moving Average.
  
• Observe volatility and the natural range of price movement through ATR.
  
• Recognize key levels where strong reactions or potential reversals are more likely.
  

As a result, the ICT AI ATR functions as a combined tool that replaces the need to use several separate indicators, enabling traders to analyze trend, volatility, price bands, and even Fibonacci targets within a single unified framework.


🔵How to Use

The ICT AI ATR indicator is designed to simplify market analysis through two main components: visual display of bands and signals on the chart itself, and a multi-symbol analytical dashboard capable of monitoring over 20 different assets simultaneously across multiple timeframes.

This dashboard feature allows traders to gain a quick overview of overall market conditions without opening multiple charts or constantly switching timeframes. It updates in real-time, showing active Buy (Long) and Sell signals for each symbol.

As such, the combination of direct chart display and dashboard analytics makes the indicator useful both for detailed analysis of a single symbol and for monitoring multiple markets at once.



🟣How do ICT AI ATR trading signals work?

• Sell Signal (Short): Triggered when the price pushes below the lower band (Low goes outside the lower band) and then closes back above it. This indicates potential weakness in bullish momentum and suggests possible selling pressure or the start of a downward correction. Traders can use this to spot sell setups or manage long positions.
  
• Buy Signal (Long): Triggered when the price extends above the upper band (High goes outside the upper band) and then closes back below it. This often signals exhaustion in bearish pressure and the return of buying strength, potentially marking the start of a new upward move.
  

This signaling logic is based on the actual behavior of price relative to the ATR dynamic bands. Unlike static formulas, signals adapt to changing market conditions, making them more accurate and reliable.



The main advantage of the ICT AI ATR indicator is that traders can benefit from real-time analysis directly on the chart by observing price interactions with the bands and signals while also receiving a multi-market overview through the dashboard. This combination is especially valuable for traders who operate across multiple instruments or markets simultaneously.



🔵Settings

🟣Logical settings

Moving Average Type: Select the type of moving average for the central line. Options include EMA, SMA, RMA, WMA, or HMA depending on the trading strategy.

Moving Average Period: Defines the length of the moving average. Shorter periods make the central line more responsive to price changes, while longer periods smooth out the line to show the broader trend.

ATR Period: Determines the number of candles considered for volatility calculation. Shorter periods increase sensitivity, while longer periods provide a more stable view of volatility.

ATR Multiplier: Sets the distance between the upper/lower bands and the central moving average line. Higher values widen the bands, while lower values bring them closer to price.
Smooth Period: Used to smooth data and reduce chart noise. Higher values produce smoother, more consistent indicator lines.

Signal Gap: Defines the minimum number of candles required between two consecutive signals. This prevents back-to-back signals from appearing too frequently and ensures only the more reliable ones are shown.



🟣Display Settings

Table on Chart: Allows users to choose the position of the signal dashboard either directly on the chart or below it, depending on their layout preference.

Number of Symbols: Enables users to control how many symbols are displayed in the screener table, from 10 to 20, adjustable in increments of 2 symbols for flexible screening depth.

Table Mode: This setting offers two layout styles for the signal table:

• Basic: Mode displays symbols in a single column, using more vertical space.
  
• Extended: Mode arranges symbols in pairs side-by-side, optimizing screen space with a more compact view.
  

Table Size: Lets you adjust the table’s visual size with options such as: auto, tiny, small, normal, large, huge.

Table Position: Sets the screen location of the table. Choose from 9 possible positions, combining vertical (top, middle, bottom) and horizontal (left, center, right) alignments.



🟣Symbol Settings

Each of the 10 symbol slots comes with a full set of customizable parameters:

• Symbol: Define or select the asset (e.g., XAUUSD, BTCUSD, EURUSD, etc.).
  
• Timeframe: Set your desired timeframe for each symbol (e.g., 15, 60, 240, 1D).
  

🟣Alert Settings

Alert: Enables alerts for AAS.

Message Frequency: Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.

Show Alert Time by Time Zone: Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.


🔵Conclusion

The ICT AI ATR indicator, by combining three core elements Moving Average for trend detection, ATR for volatility measurement and dynamic bands, and Fibonacci levels for price targets—provides a multi-layered and intelligent tool for market analysis. In addition to showing accurate bands directly on the chart, it also offers a multi-symbol dashboard that allows traders to monitor signals across different assets and timeframes in real time.

The key advantage of this indicator is that it eliminates the need to use several separate tools by integrating trend, volatility, key levels, and trade signals into one unified framework. For this reason, ICT AI ATR is a reliable and effective choice for both short-term traders seeking quick market moves and long-term traders focused on dynamic support and resistance levels.
