CCI - Commodity Channel Index
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum oscillator used to identify overbought and oversold levels by measuring an instrument's variations from its statistical mean. This versatile indicator is also used to find reversals and divergences. Initially designed for identifying trends in commodities, CCI is now applied to a wide range of financial instruments.
