Mount Gibson Iron Ltd forms trend-ending "Commodity Channel Index" chart pattern

Aug 21, 2024

Trading Central has detected a "Commodity Channel Index" chart pattern formed on Mount Gibson Iron Ltd (MGX:ASX). This trend-ending signal indicates that the stock price trend may end.

Tells Me: The price is relatively far from its 20-bar average price.

The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) measures the deviation of the price from its average value (comparing to a chosen moving average, typically 20 bars). The oscillator is normalized by dividing by the typical deviation, so we get an oscillator fluctuating roughly between +100 and -100. Many traders use these as overbought(+100)/oversold(-100) markers and watch for signs of reversal, but original use was to consider long positions when CCI is above +100 (bullish event), and short when below -100 (bearish event). When the price crosses back in between +100 and -100, another event is triggered to indicate an end to the prior bullish or bearish situation and a possible opportunity to close out such a position.

This trend-ending pattern can be seen on the following chart and was detected by Trading Central proprietary pattern recognition technology.
