The 63 on the 5m is the same as the 5 on the 60m so pretty easy to understand.
Once everything is agreeing you must wait for a little retracement on the 4CCI on the 5m chart before entering.
This is especially true with breakouts and will help prevent getting caught-up with false signals.

The snap-shot demonstrates this.
The Trigger on 60m chart crosses during the 1 AM candle but its not clear at this point whether the break is confirmed.
However, upon closer inspection of the 5m chart we can clearly see all the moving averages nicely bunched and in correct order.
The 63CCI remains in negative, the trigger retraces back up to plus 100 and then turns back round and crosses the 0.0 with the break of the support trendline.

A relatively simple trade netting almost 400 pips !!
Hi Zac,

If you look at the GBPJPY H1 chart you posted, in particular the red vertical line at 01:00.

On my data feed, the value for CCI(84) at that point was about -175.

Does this mean you would ignore this trade or do you only look at CCI(21) for overbought or oversold conditions?

Thanks.

Great thread!
