How to make CCI slow??

New comment
 

Hello.

I have normal CCI period 84 on my chart. But still the movment of CCI is quite zig zag. I want to make the zig zag smoother. Plz tell me if any changes needs to make in code.

KingAmit1: I have normal CCI period 84 on my chart. But still the movment of CCI is quite zig zag. I want to make the zig zag smoother. Plz tell me if any changes needs to make in code
  1. If it's a normal CCI why did you need to post it?

  2. Play video    		Please edit your post.
    For large amounts of code, attach it.
  3. You don't say HOW you want to make it smoother, so no one can help. You can add a moving average on top by dragging the moving average indicator to the sub-window and select price = previous indicator.
