Jurik Volty as a Multi-Timeframe Measure of Market Volatility
Summary
The document introduces Jurik Volty as a volatility measure used in adaptive Jurik smoothing. It says the indicator highlights periods of volatility that are elevated or reduced relative to average conditions. Its listed inputs are the timeframe, volatility period, and price. The described version supports the timeframes available in MetaTrader 5 and includes options that automatically select the second or third higher timeframe relative to the active chart; these choices update when the chart timeframe changes.
The central interpretive caveat is that Volty is not directional. A change in its color represents a shift in volatility, not a signal that prices are expected to rise or fall. The description is conceptual and gives no formula, parameter values, chart examples, performance tests, or trading rules. It therefore explains the intended reading and timeframe behavior, but does not establish how the indicator performs or how it should be combined with an entry, exit, or risk-management method.
