Navk if im.on m1 chart and i have 14 cci for that chart timeframe as you do You have 170 for the 5mins What setting would you have for 15min timeframe on a 14 cci? Would it be 56?
It depends on individuals.

I prefer to have 170 setting, but then 14 CCI setting provides signals and CCI 170 is the trend.

Another important thing I noticed today.

The moving average confluence happens first, then the 4 hr M candle changes to green. with CCI confirmations. Good to buy too. see the attached chart.

CCI 1 min setting = 14

CCI 15 min setting = 15 x 14 = 210.

I do not know if anybody took this trade, I took it and booked 30 +

Low risk trade as EURUSD was at the bottom of the day.

EURAUD is currently bearish. Yeah pull back is possible for some. Overall trend on a larger time frame is Sell.

could.you.write out a step.by step instruction for all.here to.understand the method you.use

Just thinking out aloud

is there anyway we could clean up the chart from anything not really.needed?

Also

could we improve the chart to stand out like a sore thumb what is happenening

if the moving averages are first to show there hand could we maybe brighten or colour code one or two as step 1?

Navk could you write a step 1 step 2 step 3 for all to follow?

Correct me or fill.in the gaps if im wrong

Step.1 chart on m1
step 2 h1 h4 and d all red or green
step 3 big candle on chart (h4) should be same colour as step 2
step 4 all movibg averages should be into a tight group (convergence)
Step 5 cci over bought / oversold

Hi devontrader
I see from your posts 2926 you did a few little mods to Clives setups yourself, just out of interest how did they play out in the fullness of time ?

Yeah perfect.

Sometimes I take a trade when H1 and H4 are same colour + D different colour.

Daily pivot/weekly pivots will have to be taken into consideration too.

As usual good stuff, I got it as well in just a slightly different way, All based on Clives 100lwma
60min turned BLUE around 15.00 on the 9th and mostly stayed BLUE just trending slowly up
15min 5min 1min mostly kept flip flopping and the THEY kept opening and pushing it down so its been hard to get into the up move with any confidence but today after opening it above Pivot and with the 15m 5m 1m 100lwma kicking in early and little range in Bang straight up to R1 plus with that being a 60min 70+pip candle I to was more the happy to bank
I now have Clives 100lwma setup as a Band ie off the High & low
Well done great trading Navk

Hi devontrader
Do you need much more than LO clean ab move lower test of range small bc retrace, entries given when cci retraces? It doesn't get much simpler. GBPAUD was high on TT.

The only thing I continue to look at is agreement across pairs. At the time euraud was agreeing and there was a lot of aud strength on TT.

Godsclown I have had to take your alert off my charts. As good as it was it really slowed my computer down.

Hi Mr V
Good to see you post again, thanks for the reminder that Clives Method as he as set out works when in good hand's. I have noticed that Clive as popped back in from time to time to keep an eye on the thread but he as left no comment, So I feel a little uneasy with messing around with his stuff when as I say it works in good hands like yours, as from now I will back off but just keep following the thread
I will carry on with how I use it but will not inflict any thoughts onto the thread
Please keep up your good work and support to Clive as I really enjoy the thread.

Cheers OAPDave as I have said several times before I am really, really impressed with the method (plus some basic market analysis and of course agreement across pairs to be trading with strength/weakness). Small stops into the best moving pairs = maximum return.

Devontrader asked for a check list, at the moment:

- Sell below, buy above 100lwma
- cci 70 hit -100 for sell +100 for buy (I don't mind if it retraces within the -100 +100 range if the other items listed are present)
- Is GBP or EUR strong/weak against many pairs (either on TT or visually above/below 100lwma on charts) or aud/jpy/nzd/cad strong/weak against both gbp and eur (I'm not interested in other pairs). For me this is at the moment the most important thing as your odds increase if trading in line with genuine strength/weakness
- Looking for clean ab that tests range or breaks and retests range
- Small bc retrace (see chart above perfect example) to complete abc pattern, 200 cci retrace on scale or to +100 -100
- Whats at/near top of TT indi to narrow the focus

These are the 5 min charts I have but just showing for ease of reference entries taken as per system described.

LO is the green line.

For me its a trading basic, if a LO move in one direction fails the odds of a move in the other increases.

GA tried to go up and failed, so when GA has a clean ab move to range low around 1.8725 and small bc retrace for a clean lower high, this added to the other items mentioned gives a high prob trade. GA and EA are both below their purple lines, both giving lower highs so are agreeing. So AUD is strong. Entry per rules off 1 min.
