Gloe: All that would probably work but I am afraid that you are a little over my head. I am trying to keep to a simpler approach. I am using the 1 minute CCI 720 which gives you the same CCI numbers as 5 minute 144 and they are both above +125 1 minute 720 had you long at 40.30 and 5 minute 144 had you long at 40.43
