Calculation

//period = user defined, default is 10
//av = average
//sqrt = square root
//atr = average true range
//moreT = moreThan, lessT = lessThan
//index = current bar number

priorHigh = high[index-period];
priorLow = low[index-period]);
avVol = sma(period, index, volume);
avTR = atr(period);
kUp = kUp[index-1];
if (avTR moreT 0) kUp = (priorHigh/low) / (avVol * sqrt(period));
kDown = kDown[index-1];  //previous Kdown
if (avTR moreT 0) kDown = (high/priorLow) / (avVol * sqrt(period));
plot1 = null;
if (kUp moreT kDown) plot1 = low;
plot2 = null;
if (kUp lessT kDown) plot2 = high;
plot3 = null;
if (kUp == kDown) plot3 = (high + low) / 2;
Plot1: plot1;
Plot2: plot2;
Plot3: plot3;
