Updated ADR Compact with Expansion

ADR Compact with Expansion
A clean, lightweight Average Daily Range (ADR) dashboard designed for momentum and swing traders.
Displays:
ADR % — Average Daily Range as a percentage of price.
ADR $ — Average Daily Range in dollars.
ADR Expansion — Current day's range divided by the stock's ADR.
Color Coding:
Gray: Low volatility
Green: Moderate volatility
Yellow: High volatility
Red: Extreme volatility
ADR Expansion helps identify whether a stock has already made its typical daily move or still has room to run. Values near 1.0 ADR indicate a normal trading day, while higher values highlight unusually strong price expansion.
Designed to provide key volatility and range information at a glance without cluttering the chart.
You could also add a shorter "why I built this" note:
Built to quickly evaluate stock volatility and daily extension while reviewing large numbers of charts. Particularly useful for momentum, breakout, and growth-stock traders who want to assess opportunity and potential overextension in seconds.

This aligns the indicator with common ADR calculations used by many momentum and swing traders and improves consistency with other ADR tools.
