Market Trend Overview for CCI
One model, two time views: what the market looks like right now, and where the larger trend is heading over time.
This model looks at how prices behave over time to describe the current market environment. It focuses on whether price is moving steadily, stalling, or losing momentum, and checks both short-term and weekly trends for confirmation. The goal is not to predict exact prices, but to help understand when conditions are supportive, risky, or unclear.
Current Market Context (Short-Term)
As of 2026-02-06 (ET), CCI is moving sideways. Price at 80.88 is close to support near 76.95. Moves may slow down, and resistance is near 87.31. View Support & Resistance from Options
Why the market looks this way?
