About the CCI MA X2 Smoothed Indicator
The CCI MA X2 Smoothed MTF Forex Indicator for MetaTrader 4 is a powerful momentum-based tool that blends the traditional Commodity Channel Index (CCI) with dual moving average smoothing, offering a cleaner and more stable signal output.
What makes this indicator stand out is its built-in multi-timeframe (MTF) feature, which allows traders to align their entries with higher-timeframe trends while analyzing lower-timeframe charts.
Buying and selling currency pairs with this indicator is a straightforward task and goes as follows:
- Open a buy trade at the lower trend channel line if the trend channel is sloping upwards.
- Open a sell trade at the upper trend channel line if the trend channel is sloping downwards.
Close the open trade at the opposite trend channel line.
The CCI MA X2 Smoothed MTF indicator generates multiple trading opportunities daily.
The indicator can be used for both trade entry and exit, or to confirm trading signals issued by other trading systems or strategies.
For scalping and day trading purposes, the indicator tends to work the best during the London and American trading sessions on the M1, M5, and M15 charts.
