I see the Continuous Commodity Index referenced in a lot of older books. Is this index still in existence or is there a comparable index used?

@MrCrum

It's the CCI indicator included in NinjaTrader and most charting programs.

I'm just a simple man trading a simple plan.

Most people refer to CCI as an indicator. But there is a real index:

The Thomson Reuters Equal Weight Continuous Commodity Index is recognized as a major barometer of commodity prices. The index comprises 17 commodity futures that are continuously rebalanced: Cocoa, Coffee ‘C’, Copper, Corn, Cotton, Crude Oil, Gold, Heating Oil, Live Cattle, Live Hogs, Natural Gas, Orange Juice, Platinum, Silver, Soybeans, Sugar No. 11, and Wheat. The index trades on the ICE Futures Exchange.

Here are some of the symbols on IQFeed:
