VOLATILITY

Volatility is a special measure that describes a degree of variation of trading price for a certain asset in a certain period of time that is defined by the standard deviation and logarithmic returns. Volatility can be measured by these standard deviations just as well as by the difference between returns from the same asset.

Sometimes swings of the prices in the different direction are also called volatility.
