UltraCCI Indicator For MT5
The UltraCCI Indicator For MT5 works based on the commodity channel index and a few other different types of moving average. Based on the complex calculations it creates different colored clouds in the indicator window that tells the traders about the direction of the major trend. When the price is trend up, you will notice a blue color cloud. However, look at the color of the dots along with the reference line since it tells the strength of the buyers and the sellers. When the buyers lose the momentum, red dots will start to appear in the middle of the blue color cloud. On the contrary, when the price is trending down, the color of the cloud will be red. As soon as the sellers slow down, you will notice small green color dots along with the reference line. Make sure you use this tool as a trade filter tool only. And try to take the reading in the higher time frame so that you don’t have to lose a big portion of the trading capital in the learning stage. The safety of your investment should always come first.
Installing the UltraCCI Indicator For MT5
After you downloaded the indicator via the form above you need to unzip the zip-file. Then you need to copy the file ultracci.mq5 into the folder MQL5\Indicators of your MT5 installation. After that please restart MT5 and then you will be able to see the indicator in the list of indicators.
