The CCI Divergence Indicator is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to detect hidden divergences between price action and the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) oscillator. Divergence often signals potential market reversals, offering traders high-probability entry points. This indicator simplifies the complex task of spotting divergence, making it ideal for both novice and experienced traders focusing on reversal strategies.
The indicator identifies divergence by comparing price action with CCI pivot values and connecting peaks and troughs on the chart:
Hidden bullish divergence: Price forms higher lows while the oscillator shows lower lows.
Hidden bearish divergence: Price creates lower highs while the oscillator shows higher highs.
Divergences are displayed as histogram bars:
Green bars (+1): Indicate bullish momentum and potential uptrend reversal.
Red bars (-1): Indicate bearish momentum and potential downtrend reversal.
Zero value: No divergence detected; no bars appear.
The indicator also plots arrows directly on the chart for easy interpretation: green arrow = buy, red arrow = sell.
Enter a buy trade when the indicator displays a green arrow.
Confirm with additional price action or trend analysis.
Use previous swing lows or key support levels for stop-loss placement.
Enter a sell trade when a red arrow appears on the chart.
Confirm with bearish price action or trend indicators.
Set stop-loss above recent swing highs or resistance levels.
For optimal performance, the indicator works best in H1, H4, D1, or higher timeframes, as lower timeframes (M1, M5) produce frequent signals that may be confusing or delayed.
Detects divergences on all timeframes, perfect for both beginners and experienced traders.
Works on multiple instruments including Forex, indices, and cryptocurrencies.
Allows customization of colors, text, background, candles, volume, and stop levels.
Highlights the highest probability setups for better risk management.
Free to download and compatible with MT4 and MT5 platforms.
By identifying hidden divergences, traders can anticipate trend reversals before they fully develop, improving entry timing and profit potential.
On a D1 GBP/CAD chart, green arrows indicate bullish reversals, while red arrows signal potential bearish reversals. Green bars show strong buyer control, and red bars confirm seller strength. This visualization helps traders make informed decisions using price action and divergence signals.
The CCI Divergence Indicator is an excellent tool for spotting trend reversals and improving trade entries. While it works best on higher timeframes (H1 and above), combining it with other technical tools and using proper stop-losses is essential for reducing risk.
