Stoller STARC Bands

STARC bands create a channel surrounding a simple moving average. The width of the created channel varies with a period of the average range; thus the name (' ST ' for Stoller, plus ' ARC ' for Average Range Channel ). STARC Bands, in a fashion similar to Bollinger Bands, will tighten in steady markets and loosen in volatile markets. However, rather than being based on closes, the STARC Bands are based on the average true range, thus giving a more in depth picture of the commodity's market volatility. While the penetration of a Bollinger Band may indicate a continuation of a price move, the STARC Bands define upper and lower limits for normal price action.
