The following are the conditions to be met for making a BUY:

• Wait for the Zero Line Cross.Wait until the 34-period CCI crosses the zero line, while the 100-period CCI is on the correct side of the zero-line, and the price is on the correct side of the moving average and the B-Band Stops.This means that if the 34-period CCI crosses above the zero-line, the 100-period CCI should also be above the zero-line, and the price should close above the moving average, and the B-Band Stops. If either the 100-period CCI is on the wrong side of the zero-line, or the price is on the wrong side of the moving average, (that is CCI crosses above, while price closes below the moving average), the trade has not met its requirements, and should not be entered.
• Enter Your Trade. Enter your trade when the 100-period and 34-period CCI crossed the zero line. in this case the 100-period and 34-period CCI crossed above the zero line.

Stop LOSS:
As soon as your entry order has been filled, make sure that your trading software has placed your target and stop-loss orders, or place them manually if necessary.

However, it’s important to note that this stop loss strategy is not foolproof and can still result in losses if the market experiences sudden and unexpected volatility. Therefore, you must also consider other factors such as your risk tolerance, market conditions, and trading plan when setting your stop loss orders.
