  Good morning guys, is there any way you can build using the Standard deviation in % terms rather than just price terms? Any help much appreciated

  Thanks in advance

  Hi @Alfy

  You can divide the standard deviation by the mean multiplied by 100…

  Standard Deviation %

  Mu = Average[n](Close) MuSquared = Square(Mu) XiSquared = Square(Close) xStd = SQRT(1/n * Summation[n](XiSquared) - MuSquared) StdPro = xStd / Mu * 100 Return StdPro as "StdPro"

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  Mu = Average[n](Close) MuSquared = Square(Mu) XiSquared = Square(Close) xStd = SQRT(1/n * Summation[n](XiSquared) - MuSquared) StdPro = xStd / Mu * 100 Return  StdPro as "StdPro"
