How do I print (ATR)

[Gleetche]

Hello,

How do I print bt.ind.ATR?

and if possible

How do I make a plot a trailing ATR stop loss? Does anyone know a tutorial/guide where I can learn this?

Hi Gleetche,

I guess your code would help to answer your question.

@Jonny8 Ohh okay.

These is my atr line.

def __init__(self):

    self.my_atr = bt.ind.ATR(period = 14)

and I am trying to make this work.

    def next(self):
        # Simply log the closing price of the series from the reference
        self.log('Close: %.2f , ATR: $.2f' % (self.dataclose[0],self.my_atr))

But it won't run.

I am trying to get the log ATRin the terminal because it is difficult to see the value of ATR in the graph.

I think replacing the $ after "ATR:" with a % should do the trick.

self.my_atr

Try using square quotes after this

self.atr[0]

Sorry, typo.

self.my_atr[0]
