CCI On the Charts
According to Investopedia: The CCI was originally developed to spot long-term trend changes but has been adapted by traders for use on all markets or timeframes.
  • The CCI is a market indicator used to track market movements that may indicate buying or selling.
  • The CCI compares current price to average price over a specific time period.
  • Different strategies can use the CCI in different ways, including using it across multiple timeframes to establish dominant trends, pullbacks, or entry points into that trend.
  • Some trading strategies based on CCI can produce multiple false signals or losing trades when conditions turn choppy.
The CCI is an unbounded indicator similar to the MACD, ADX or ROC indicators.
The parameters of the CCI can be changed by locating and opening the Javascript Code under Data Building Procedure -> Procedure Loop under "CCI" Product Definition.
