I'm doing research on the indicator CCI, I'd love to hear from those who use it, exactly how you use it, and how you pair it up with other indicators, if any.

I use CCI for most of my stratgeies. I used Woodies indicator with a modified time frame of 50CCI and 14 for the turbo setup. I also use the 34EMA along with the 50CCI.

I use the 50 CCI for confirmation of trend change through the 0. I also use various setups that are used at DrBobs web site.

You can read the attached document for explanation of 50CCI and some setups.

The 50 CCI and the 34 EMA work well together.

Cheers

I hope this gets added to. TwoBlink if you could keep us updated with your findings re-garding the CCI would be great.

I was trading the Woodies strategies not long ago. As per a tutorial on the Woodies CCI Club web site.

Combined it with reversal candles and found it very useful, especially if you filter trades down to ideal CCI patterns and not "almost a..." signals. Woody recommends ignoring price, but to me that seemed dumb. I don't believe I'd have been as successful doing it that way either.
I was raking in some good winners to loosers.

Abandoned trading the method. Didn't suit me. I was having off days. Too often. Mostly because it just didn't Gel with me and it showed in the results.
I also couldn't trade any time frames other than 15 mins. or 5mins (signals worked on 1 min, but were unprofitable.) I don't want a method that requires me to be so close to the PC all the time anyway.

I've moved on, but I occasionly bring the standard CCI up to pick rallys/dips. (combining divergence and candle patterns). ...experimenting mostly.

Have you looked at the 50CCI? with a 14 turbo as used on DrBobs longer term plays.

May suit you longer term, less screen time style. It's worth the read.

I've been checking out CCI plotted from momentum bars and they look really promising. The trend line breaks are freakishly accurate.

I'm using woodie CCI in 30m tf, giving me a very good trade during non volatile market,but during economic event/news release, it seems to me that it is too fragile.

Markj,
what is the best tf for 50CCI?Looking forward to improve my CCI set up.
Thanks in advance

Putratrg,

I use it on 4hr time frame and 1hr timeframe. I use the 50CCI and 34EMA as entry confirmations on my 2 longer terms systems and on the 1hr chart for trend confirmation to trade positions based on other rules.

Hey, Keys:

Is this a separate indicator based on momentum bars? If so, please share.

I use the 50/14. It works very well on the hourly and above. I use it with MACD to catch divergence-based turns.

Thanks Markj, I'll give it a shot some time when I get keen again.

I played around with different values myself and lost interest. Having somewhere to start again would be a great help.

I used CCI to improve the behaviour of my EA. The Pip Boxer EA is basically a breakout system. It finds a top and bottom for the price. If the price approaches one of the edges it normally enters a trade in the direction of the breakout. However, I used CCI to enhance this behaviour. Based on the value of CCI if the price approaches an edge the system may trade in the opposite direction. You may read through the Pip Boxer thread for more information. I couldn't find an indicator as good as CCI. It is a miracle that has made me and many others hundreds of pips.

Good Luck,
Al

The momentum bars are not time based. A new bar is created only after price has moved up or down a certain amount. I attached a GBP/USD chart from 12/13 from around 2:30am PST. The 2nd chart is time based for comparison (no indicator). This was during the retail sales release, so a time chart would cram a lot of action into a few bars which is harder to read. I'm sure you could spot these TLBs using normal time based charts, but they really seem to pop out at you when using momentum bars. Often there are 3 or more points defining the trend line, vs. 2 or rarely more with time based. I'd recommend looking at both time and momentum at the same time for the best picture.

Keys,

Where can we access "Momentum Based Charts" ?

I use neoticker. I'm not sure what other products have the ability. I suppose it would be possible to code an indicator to display momentum bars if the software didn't ship with it.
