fxbs is on a distinguished road
atr period 1 and range: looks like mt4 stock atr lying (1pip)...

found why: atr (1) not equal range-

range : hi - lo
atr : TempBuffer[i]=MathMax(high,prevclose)-MathMin(low,prevclose);

so, by any definition (not just on mt) - atr (average true range) & range is completely different
and thanks for info and explanation
