This strategy trades on the crossover of two Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicators. A fast CCI reacts quickly to price changes while a slow CCI smooths market noise. Signals are generated when the fast line crosses the slow one.
Details
- Entry Criteria:
- Long: fast CCI crosses above slow CCI.
- Short: fast CCI crosses below slow CCI.
- Long/Short: Both.
- Exit Criteria:
- Long positions closed when fast CCI crosses below slow CCI.
- Short positions closed when fast CCI crosses above slow CCI.
- Stops: No.
- Default Values:
CandleType= 6-hour candlesFastLength= 14SlowLength= 6BuyOpen= trueSellOpen= trueBuyClose= trueSellClose= true
- Filters:
- Category: Trend-following
- Direction: Both
- Indicators: CCI
- Stops: No
- Complexity: Low
- Timeframe: Any
- Seasonality: No
- Neural networks: No
- Divergence: No
- Risk level: Medium
