I need a volatility-based Trailing Stop

I'm looking for some code (script, or EA) that has volatility based trailing stops. I would like to see what other people have done in this area, and possible methods for implementing such a thing.

Trailing stop would adjust and re-adjust itself according to current volatility? Sounds like a good idea. What would you use to determine volatility? Just volume?

Take a look at the Chandalier exit (I think originally proposed by Chuck Le Beau), thats definately based on ATR, and possibly Alex Eldes safe stop technique (I cant remember if thats volatility based, but probably worth looking at)

Ive seen MQL code for both on various forums, and if I recall FX Sniper had an indicator version of the Chandalier exit available on moneytec or strategy builder site, so probably worth doing a quick search

If I can find links, I'll post em

EDIT: A basic chandalier indicator can be downloaded fom here:

StrategyBuilderFX

This is possibly worth looking at :
VTS TS Indicator
