Under the Hood
How It Works
CCI calculates the deviation of the typical price from its SMA, scaled by the mean absolute deviation. It has no fixed bounds but typically oscillates between -100 and +100.
In Practice
How Traders Use It
Readings above +100 may indicate overbought; below -100 may indicate oversold. CCI can spot divergences and trend beginnings when it crosses above or below zero.
