			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>The following appears in the explanation of Average True Range</p><br /><p>100 Pips &quot;A critical level in pips(for the appropriate logic).&quot;; </p><p>From the formulae of Average True Range, I do not understand where this 100 pips level fits into the formulae, or of its significance. Would someone care to elaborate? Thanks</p>]]></content>
