Extrema DetectorDetermines local maximums and minimums points in the chart.
Parameters:
lookback : number of candlesticks to look.
extrema_finder_sensivity : If lower, more extreme points will be found (may over-find).
Brief algorithm description:
Computes a Simple Moving Average (length= extrema_finder_sensivity ), and searches for its local extremes.
Given some SMA extreme, it looks the previous extrema_finder_sensivity candlesticks to find the highest (or lowest value).
Notes:
Is a lagged indicator: determining if the current candlestick have reach a maximum can be delayed to, at most extrema_finder_sensivity -further candlesticks.

ATR Volatility Spectrum
This indicator estimates price volatility and it is based on ATR only.
The advantage of this indicator is that it can be used with any pair, any time frame.
The fluctuations of a short period ATR with respect to a gently ATR with high period
are calculated.
The only parameters are the periods of the reference ATR and fast ATR, which could be
safely let untouched and modified by experts.
RED areas depict low volatility
GREEN areas depict high volatility.
When the clouds are outside the region delimited by the aqua lines we have
extreme conditions:
Extremely low volatility = red cloud outside the aqua bands
Extremely high volatility = green cloud outside the aqua bands
