The bars
The CCI
The CCI is +65, between -100 and +100: on the last bar it fell back below +100.
- What it says
- The price is within its usual distance of the 20-bar average. The typical price is 2,325.20 against a 20-bar average of 2,309.65.
- How it is read
- In Lambert's original use, a move above +100 was read as the start of an up move and a move below -100 as the start of a down move. Other traders fade the extremes back toward 0.
- Read it with care
- The CCI can stay above +100 or below -100 for a long time in a trend; an extreme reading on its own is not a turn.

Education only, not investment advice. The answer comes from the numbers you typed in, not from your account or the market. Simulated results are hypothetical and have limits: real trading has slippage, gaps, changing results and emotions. Trading leveraged products can lose money quickly, including all of it. Risk warning
Educational only, not financial advice; trading involves risk.
Distance from the average, in its own units
Donald Lambert's commodity channel index takes the typical price of each bar, subtracts its average over the last 20 bars and divides by 0.015 times the average distance from that average. The 0.015 was picked so that most readings land between -100 and +100; outside that band the price is further from its average than usual.
It works on any market despite the name. Compare it with the RSI calculator and the stochastic calculator, and size the trade with the position size calculator.
Not advice. Arithmetic on the bars you type; an indicator describes the past bars, not the next one.
