Whistler's Active Volatility Energy Price Mass Indicator Parameters

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

This short description introduces Whistler's Active Volatility Energy Price Mass indicator, attributed to Mark Whistler's book on volatility. It lists twelve configurable inputs: periods, shifts, and deviations for fast and slow bands; a calculation period for the fast and slow oscillators; and five threshold levels ranging from extreme upper to extreme lower. The text describes what the parameters control at a high level, but does not give formulas or default values.

The document is an indicator overview rather than a trading strategy. It does not specify entry or exit rules, explain how to interpret crossings or threshold readings, or present chart examples, backtests, or performance evidence. Traders would need the underlying implementation and further documentation to understand how the oscillator is calculated and whether it suits a particular instrument or timeframe. The parameter list alone does not establish predictive value or a risk-management approach.

Key ideas

  • The indicator is described as a volatility and price-mass tool associated with Mark Whistler.
  • It has separate fast and slow band settings for period, shift, and deviation.
  • A further period setting controls calculation of the fast and slow oscillators.
  • Five configurable levels define upper, central, and lower thresholds, including extremes.
  • The description gives no formulas, trading rules, or performance evidence.
