FX Sniper: T3-CCI

loved it... thanks

@hrishi18, You are welcome.

Hi HP. Great work on this indicator and all the other ones. I was wondering if you'd have the time and be able to code the following "stepless" MTF version of it too, as the one you've provided doesn't calculate in the same way? Thanks in advance and hope you can help!

=============================================

Can this script be used in think or swim? I tried pasting the Squeeze Momentun indicator but had invalid statements so I called Hahn-Tech and they charge to port it over to think or swim.

Is there any way this can be applied to Think or swim?

Is there documentation we can read about this indicator?

There is a whole lot of documentation on the net. Especially in the forex forums. Sniper is a forex trader. Do a search in forexfactory.com or forex-tsd.com.

Thank you, would you please explain by is a double confirmed signal?

sorry, mistype, meant to ask what is a double confirmed signal?

I am not an educator, but the meaning as I see it is that you should have more than one type of indicator to assess the trade you are about to make. There are basically four categories of indicators. They will measure either the trend, momentum, volatility, or volume. You want to avoid using more than one indicator out of each group. Why have multiple indicators that tell you the same thing? Instead utilize indicators that compliment each other, say one from each category to confirm your decision. Hope this helps.
