The Choppiness Index uses a scale of between 0 and 100. It also typically uses upper and lower bands at 61.8 & 38.2 respectively.

This indicator is plotted by first calculating the true range for each period and then adding the values of n-periods.

Second, it calculates the highest value and lowest value over n-periods and calculates their difference.

Third, it divides the sum of the true ranges and calculates the base-10 logarithm of this value.

Finally, it divides this value by the base-10 logarithm of n-periods and multiplies the results by 100.
