CCI Failure Swing Strategy (C# Version)

The CCI Failure Swing is based on the Commodity Channel Index forming a lower high above +100 or a higher low below -100. This inability to make a new extreme often signals the end of the prior trend.

Testing indicates an average annual return of about 73%. It performs best in the crypto market.

The strategy goes long when CCI holds above -100 and turns up, or short when it fails near +100 and turns down.

A percent stop keeps risk small and trades exit if the CCI crosses back through the previous swing level.
