ATR Chandelier StopTrade Control Adaptive ATR Chandelier Stop
The Trade Control Adaptive ATR Chandelier Stop is a volatility based trailing stop designed for swing and position traders who want a more objective way to manage exits and protect gains.
Instead of applying the same fixed percentage stop to every stock, the indicator uses Average True Range, or ATR, to account for how much each symbol typically moves. More volatile stocks receive wider stop levels, while lower volatility stocks receive tighter stop levels.
How it works
For long positions, the trailing stop is calculated as:
Highest high over the selected lookback period minus ATR multiplied by the selected multiplier
With the default settings, the calculation is:
22 bar highest high minus 3 times the 14 bar ATR
This creates a stop that hangs below the stock’s recent high, which is why it is called a Chandelier stop.
As the stock makes new highs, the stop can move higher. During normal pullbacks, the stop generally does not move lower while the bullish trend remains intact.
When price closes below the trailing stop, the indicator changes to a bearish state and begins plotting the corresponding stop above price.
Default settings
ATR Length: 14
Price Lookback: 22
ATR Multiplier: 3.0
Automatic Volatility Adjustment: Off by default
These settings are intended as a balanced starting point for swing and position traders using the daily chart and holding trades for several weeks to several months.
Adaptive volatility option
The optional adaptive setting adjusts the ATR multiplier based on ATR as a percentage of the stock price.
When enabled, the indicator gives highly volatile stocks additional room and may tighten the stop for lower volatility stocks. The standard 3 ATR setting remains the default for traders who prefer a simpler and more consistent approach.
Best uses
The indicator is designed for:
• Swing trading
• Position trading
• Trend following
• Managing profitable trades
• Reducing emotional exit decisions
• Monitoring individual stocks or watchlists
It is generally most useful on the daily timeframe.
Alert condition
The script includes an alert condition for a confirmed daily close below the trailing stop.
Recommended TradingView alert settings:
Condition: Daily Close Below ATR Stop
Interval: 1D
Trigger: Once per bar close
The alert is designed to trigger when the trend first changes from bullish to bearish. It does not repeatedly alert every day while price remains below the stop.
Important considerations
The Trade Control Adaptive ATR Chandelier Stop is a trade management tool, not a complete trading strategy.
Traders should also consider technical support and resistance, entry price, position size, maximum acceptable loss, earnings risk, gap risk, and overall market conditions.
A stock can gap below the plotted stop, particularly around earnings or major news. The indicator does not guarantee execution at the displayed price.
