MetaStock does ATR. It defaults to a 14-period average, plus you have the ability to customize it any way you'd like. Also, you can get free ATR charts from http://www.stockcharts.com

Openings usually close out within 15-20 minutes. After that, I play setups based on overnight research and scans. Since I don't enter these positions until 10 AM EST, it dovetails nicely with the Openings. Setups usually last for about 2-3 hours until they're all closed out. Then it's...
