What is CCI EMA Alert?
CCI EMA Alert is a two-in-one signal indicator for MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5. It combines a CCI momentum breakout (period 14, ±100 level by default) with a 50 EMA trend filter, so a breakout only becomes a signal when it fires in the direction of the trend.
How the Signals Work
- BUY / CALL arrow: the CCI crosses above +100 while price is trading above the EMA — momentum breaks out in the direction of the uptrend.
- SELL / PUT arrow: the CCI crosses below −100 while price is trading below the EMA — momentum breaks out in the direction of the downtrend.
- Non-repaint: signals confirm on the closed candle, so an arrow stays put once it prints — what you see in history is what you would have traded live.
Built-In Alerts
The moment a valid signal appears, CCI EMA Alert can notify you four different ways — each one can be switched on or off in the settings:
- 📢 Popup alert inside MetaTrader
- 🔊 Sound alert so you hear every signal
- 📱 Mobile push to the MetaTrader app on your phone
- ✉️ Email alert straight to your inbox
MT4 & MT5 Versions Included
You get both versions — MetaTrader 4 (.ex4) and MetaTrader 5 (.ex5) — so the exact same signals work on whichever MetaTrader platform you trade.
Adjustable Settings
Tune the indicator to your own style — the CCI period and breakout level, the EMA trend-filter period, plus arrow codes, offset, and each alert toggle.
How to Use CCI EMA Alert
Drag CCI EMA Alert from the Navigator panel onto your chart. It's a momentum-breakout system with a trend filter, so it shines when markets are moving — M15–H1 during London / New York hours is the sweet spot.
Key Settings
| Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| CCI Period | 14 | The momentum engine |
| CCI Breakout Level | ±100 | The line CCI must break for a signal — raise to ±150 for fewer, stronger breakouts |
| EMA Trend Filter Period | 50 | Price must be on the trend side of this EMA — blocks counter-trend breakouts |
Trading the Arrows
- Aqua arrow (BUY / CALL): momentum just broke out upward in an uptrend — enter on the next candle open.
- Red arrow (SELL / PUT): momentum broke down in a downtrend.
- Signals confirm on the closed candle — arrows never repaint or move.
- Tip: breakout signals work best when volatility is expanding — avoid the quiet Asian-session hours on major pairs.
