Post From: Range Calculation for Bars

Because you are including an additional bar in the average with each new bar, only a very significant bar's range might push the cumulative average slightly higher, and only for that one bar. This becomes all the more true, as the total number of bars reaches a larger number.

I actually built this on a spreadsheet, and this it what I observed.

I think you might want to only average the current bar's range with the previous bar's range, or maybe the previous n bars.
Or compare the current bar's range to an average of the previous n bars.
