Applying QQE Calculations to the Commodity Channel Index

Summary

This brief note describes a variant of Quantitative Qualitative Estimation (QQE), an indicator calculation commonly based on the Relative Strength Index. In the variant discussed, the Commodity Channel Index serves as the input instead. The document’s central idea is a substitution of the underlying indicator: apply QQE-style calculations to CCI rather than RSI.

The note gives no calculation steps, parameter settings, entry or exit rules, charts, market examples, or performance evidence. It says the resulting indicator may be useful for trading, but advises experimentation; that claim is not supported with results in the text. Readers would need a fuller specification to reproduce the indicator or assess how it behaves across instruments and timeframes. It is best treated as a pointer to an indicator variation, not as a complete trading method or a tested strategy.

Key ideas

• QQE is commonly calculated using RSI as its input.
• The described variation uses CCI in place of RSI.
• The note provides no formula, settings, trading rules, or empirical evidence.
• Any usefulness for trading remains unverified in the document and calls for experimentation.
