This study offers the following signals based on the readings of the DMI and CCI pair, suitable for several types of trades:
- Short-term Trend Change Signals:
- A DMI oscillator above zero indicates that prices are in an uptrend.
- A DMI oscillator below the zero line and falling means that selling pressure is dominating and price is trending down.
- The sign of the DMI oscillator is indicated by the color of the price bars (which correlates with the color of the DMI histogram).
- Namely, green, red & grey price bars correspond to the DMI oscillator above, below and equal to zero.
- Colored price bars and the DMI oscillator make it easy for trend traders to recognize changes in short-term trends.
- Trend Continuation Signals:
- Blue circles appear near the bottom of the oscillator chart border when the DMI is above the zero line and the price is above its simple moving average in an uptrend.
- Dark red circles appear near the top of the chart in a downtrend when the DMI oscillator is below its zero line and below the 18-period moving average.
- Trend continuation signals are useful for those looking to add to existing positions, as well as for traders waiting for a pullback after a trend has started.
- Reversal Signals:
- The CCI signals a reversal to the downside when it breaks out of its +100 and then returns at some point, crossing below the +100 level.
- This is indicated by a magenta-colored diamond shape near the top the chart.
- The CCI signals a reversal to the upside when it moves below its −100 level and then at some point comes back to cross above the −100 level.
- This is indicated by a yellow diamond near the bottom of the chart.
- Reversal signals offer short-term rallies for countertrend traders as well as for swing traders looking for longer-term moves using the interplay between continuation and reversal signals.
