English term or phrase: average true range (ATR)
Definition from Investopedia:
a technical analysis indicator that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following: current high less the current low; the absolute value of the current high less the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low less the previous close. The average true range is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges.

Example sentence(s):
  • Usually, the Average True Range (ATR) is based on 14 periods and can be calculated on an intraday, daily, weekly or monthly basis. capital.com
  • One final way you can benefit from using the average true range indicator is to pay attention when a pair is trading in a sideways trading range, and consider opening a position when the price breaks out with increased volatility. The Forex Chronicles
