Indicators: Commodity Channel Index, CCI

 

Commodity Channel Index, CCI:

Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator measures the deviation of the commodity price from its average statistical price.

High values of the index point out that the price is unusually high being compared with the average one, and low values show that the price is too low.

In spite of its name, the Commodity Channel Index can be applied for any financial instrument, and not only for the commodities.

Yes, it is possible.
 

I have replaced Typical Price (=H+L+C/3) with Close Price, but the result is not the same as the result i see in MT4, but with Typical Price i have the same value.

The formula:

CCI = (Typical Price - SMA(Typical Price, Period) ) / ( 0.015* Mean Deviation ( SMA(Typical Price, Period) - Typical Price))

is correct for Typical Price, but not for Close Price. use MT other formula when calculate with close Price?
