Here is what I've come up with so far.

It can be improved, and so I look forward to constructive criticisms:

Trading Range Moving Average (TRMA) =

[(20day high - 20day low)/20day high]/(5day high - 5day low)

A value of >1 indicates an increase in volatility = good!

A value of <1 indicates a decrease in volatility = warning!

A value of 0.5 or less = stand aside.

I'm not sure if 5 days is enough for our purposes. So I'm still experimenting. But it is a start.

PS: this is about as sophisticated as I care to get mathematically...

TC.
