Phase Cross Strategy with Zone### Introduction to the Strategy
Welcome to the **Phase Cross Strategy with Zone and EMA Analysis**. This strategy is designed to help traders identify potential buy and sell opportunities based on the crossover of smoothed oscillators (referred to as "phases") and exponential moving averages (EMAs). By combining these two methods, the strategy offers a versatile tool for both trend-following and short-term trading setups.
### Key Features
1. **Phase Cross Signals**:
- The strategy uses two smoothed oscillators:
- **Leading Phase**: A simple moving average (SMA) with an upward offset.
- **Lagging Phase**: An exponential moving average (EMA) with a downward offset.
- Buy and sell signals are generated when these phases cross over or under each other, visually represented on the chart with green (buy) and red (sell) labels.
2. **Phase Zone Visualization**:
- The area between the two phases is filled with a green or red zone, indicating bullish or bearish conditions:
- Green zone: Leading phase is above the lagging phase (potential uptrend).
- Red zone: Leading phase is below the lagging phase (potential downtrend).
3. **EMA Analysis**:
- Includes five commonly used EMAs (13, 26, 50, 100, and 200) for additional trend analysis.
- Crossovers of the EMA 13 and EMA 26 act as secondary buy/sell signals to confirm or enhance the phase-based signals.
4. **Customizable Parameters**:
- You can adjust the smoothing length, source (price data), and offset to fine-tune the strategy for your preferred trading style.
### What to Pay Attention To
1. **Phases and Zones**:
- Use the green/red phase zone as an overall trend guide.
- Avoid taking trades when the phases are too close or choppy, as it may indicate a ranging market.
2. **EMA Trends**:
- Align your trades with the longer-term trend shown by the EMAs. For example:
- In an uptrend (price above EMA 50 or EMA 200), prioritize buy signals.
- In a downtrend (price below EMA 50 or EMA 200), prioritize sell signals.
3. **Signal Confirmation**:
- Consider combining phase cross signals with EMA crossovers for higher-confidence trades.
- Look for confluence between the phase signals and EMA trends.
4. **Risk Management**:
- Always set stop-loss and take-profit levels to manage risk.
- Use the phase and EMA zones to estimate potential support/resistance areas for exits.
5. **Whipsaws and False Signals**:
- Be cautious in low-volatility or sideways markets, as the strategy may generate false signals.
- Use additional indicators or filters to avoid entering trades during unclear market conditions.
### How to Use
1. Add the strategy to your chart in TradingView.
2. Adjust the input settings (e.g., smoothing length, offsets) to suit your trading preferences.
3. Enable the strategy tester to evaluate its performance on historical data.
4. Combine the signals with your own analysis and risk management plan for best results.
This strategy is a versatile tool, but like any trading method, it requires proper understanding and discretion. Always backtest thoroughly and trade with discipline. Let me know if you need further assistance or adjustments to the strategy!

EMA Crossover with RSI and DistanceEMA Crossover with RSI and Distance Strategy
This strategy combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) with Relative Strength Index (RSI) and distance-based conditions to generate buy, sell, and neutral signals. It is designed to help traders identify entry and exit points based on multiple technical indicators.
Key Components:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA):
The strategy uses four EMAs: EMA 5, EMA 13, EMA 40, and EMA 55.
A buy signal (long) is triggered when EMA 5 crosses above EMA 13 and EMA 40 crosses above EMA 55.
A sell signal (short) is generated when EMA 55 crosses above EMA 40.
The distance between EMAs (5 and 13) is also important. If the current distance between EMA 5 and EMA 13 is smaller than the average distance over the last 5 candles, a neutral condition is triggered, preventing a signal even if all other conditions are met.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
The 14-period RSI is used to determine market strength and direction.
The strategy requires RSI to be above 50 and greater than the average RSI (over the past 14 periods) for a buy signal.
If the RSI is above 60, a green signal is given, indicating a strong bullish condition, even if the EMA conditions are not fully met.
If the RSI is below 40, a red signal is given, indicating a strong bearish condition, regardless of the EMA crossover.
Distance Conditions:
The strategy calculates the distance between EMA 5 and EMA 13 on each candle and compares it to the average distance of the last 5 candles.
If the current distance between EMA 5 and EMA 13 is lower than the average of the last 5 candles, a neutral signal is triggered. This helps avoid entering a trade when the market is losing momentum.
Additionally, if the distance between EMA 40 and EMA 13 is greater than the previous distance, the previous signal is kept intact, ensuring that the trend is still strong enough for the signal to remain valid.
Signal Persistence:
Once a buy (green) or sell (red) signal is triggered, it remains intact as long as the price is closing above EMA 5 for long trades or below EMA 55 for short trades.
If the price moves below EMA 5 for long trades or above EMA 55 for short trades, the signal is recalculated based on the most recent conditions.
Signal Display:
Green Signals: Represent a strong buy signal and are shown below the candle when the RSI is above 60.
Red Signals: Represent a strong sell signal and are shown above the candle when the RSI is below 40.
Neutral Signals: Displayed when the conditions for entry are not met, specifically when the EMA distance condition is violated.
Long and Short Signals: Additional signals are shown based on the EMA crossovers and RSI conditions. These signals are plotted below the candle for long positions and above the candle for short positions.
Trade Logic:
Long Entry: Enter a long trade when EMA 5 crosses above EMA 13, EMA 40 crosses above EMA 55, and the RSI is above 50 and greater than the average RSI. Additionally, the current distance between EMA 5 and EMA 13 should be larger than the average distance of the last 5 candles.
Short Entry: Enter a short trade when EMA 55 crosses above EMA 40 and the RSI is below 40.
Neutral Condition: If the distance between EMA 5 and EMA 13 is smaller than the average distance over the last 5 candles, the strategy will not trigger a signal, even if other conditions are met.

Filtered ATR with EMA OverlayFiltered ATR with EMA Overlay is an advanced volatility indicator designed to provide a more accurate representation of market conditions by smoothing the standard Average True Range (ATR). This is achieved by filtering out extreme price movements and abnormal bars that can distort traditional ATR calculations.
The indicator applies an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the filtered ATR, creating a dual-layered system that highlights periods of increased or decreased volatility.
Key Features:
Filtered ATR: Filters out extreme bars, reducing noise and making the ATR line more reliable.
EMA Overlay: An EMA (default period of 10) is applied to the filtered ATR, allowing traders to track average volatility trends.
Volatility Signals:
Filtered ATR > EMA(10): Indicates higher-than-average volatility. This often correlates with trend breakouts or strong price movements.
Filtered ATR < EMA(10): Suggests reduced volatility, signaling potential consolidation or sideways price action.
Parameters:
atrLength (Default: 5):
The number of bars used to calculate the ATR. A shorter period (e.g., 3-5) responds faster to price changes, while a longer period (e.g., 10-14) provides smoother results.
multiplier (Default: 1.8):
Controls the sensitivity of the filter. A lower multiplier (e.g., 1.5) filters out more bars, resulting in smoother ATR. Higher values (e.g., 2.0) allow more bars to pass through, retaining more price volatility.
maxIterations (Default: 20):
The maximum number of bars processed to detect abnormal values. Increasing this may improve accuracy at the cost of performance.
ema10Period (Default: 10):
The period for the Exponential Moving Average applied to the filtered ATR. Shorter periods provide faster signals, while longer periods give smoother, lagging signals.
Trading Strategies:
1. Breakout Strategy:
When filtered ATR crosses above EMA(10):
Enter long positions when price breaks above a key resistance level.
Higher volatility suggests strong price action and momentum.
When filtered ATR drops below EMA(10):
Exit positions or tighten stop-loss orders as volatility decreases.
Lower volatility may indicate consolidation or trend exhaustion.
2. Trend Following Strategy:
Use the filtered ATR line to track overall volatility.
If filtered ATR consistently stays above EMA: Hold positions or add to trades.
If filtered ATR remains below EMA: Reduce position size or stay out of trades.
3. Mean Reversion Strategy:
When filtered ATR spikes significantly above EMA, it may indicate market overreaction.
Look for price to revert to the mean once ATR returns below the EMA.
4. Stop-Loss Adjustment:
As volatility increases (ATR above EMA), widen stop-loss levels to avoid being stopped out by random fluctuations.
In low volatility (ATR below EMA), tighten stop-losses to minimize losses during low activity periods.
Benefits:
Reduced Noise: By filtering abnormal bars, the indicator provides cleaner signals.
Better Trend Detection: EMA smoothing highlights volatility trends.
Adaptable: The indicator can be customized for scalping, day trading, or swing trading.
Intuitive Visualization: Traders can visually see volatility shifts and adjust strategies in real-time.
Best Practices:
Timeframes: Works effectively on all timeframes, but higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) yield more reliable signals.
Markets: Suitable for forex, crypto, stocks, and commodities.
Combining Indicators: Use in combination with RSI, Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, or price action analysis for stronger signals.
How It Works (Under the Hood):
The script calculates the Daily Range (High - Low) for each bar.
The largest and smallest bars are filtered out if their difference exceeds the multiplier (default 1.8).
The remaining bars are averaged to generate the filtered ATR.
An EMA(10) is then applied to the filtered ATR for smoother visualization.
McClellan A-D Volume Integration ModelThe strategy integrates the McClellan A-D Oscillator with an adjustment based on the Advance/Decline (A-D) volume data. The McClellan Oscillator is calculated by taking the difference between the short-term and long-term exponential moving averages (EMAs) of the A-D line. This strategy introduces an enhancement where the A-D volume (the difference between the advancing and declining volume) is factored in to adjust the oscillator value.
Inputs:
• ema_short_length: The length for the short-term EMA of the A-D line.
• ema_long_length: The length for the long-term EMA of the A-D line.
• osc_threshold_long: The threshold below which the oscillator must drop for an entry signal to trigger.
• exit_periods: The number of periods after which the position is closed.
• Data Sources:
• ad_advance and ad_decline are the data sources for advancing and declining issues, respectively.
• vol_advance and vol_decline are the volume data for the advancing and declining issues. If volume data is unavailable, it defaults to na (Not Available), and the fallback logic ensures that the strategy continues to function.
McClellan Oscillator with Volume Adjustment:
• The A-D line is calculated by subtracting the declining issues from the advancing issues. Then, the volume difference is applied to this line, creating a “weighted” A-D line.
• The short and long EMAs are calculated for the weighted A-D line to generate the McClellan Oscillator.
Entry Condition:
• The strategy looks for a reversal signal, where the oscillator falls below the threshold and then rises above it again. The condition is designed to trigger a long position when this reversal happens.
Exit Condition:
• The position is closed after a set number of periods (exit_periods) have passed since the entry.
Plotting:
• The McClellan Oscillator and the threshold are plotted on the chart for visual reference.
• Entry and exit signals are highlighted with background colors to make the signals more visible.
Scientific Background:
The McClellan A-D Oscillator is a popular market breadth indicator developed by Sherman and Marian McClellan. It is used to gauge the underlying strength of a market by analyzing the difference between the number of advancing and declining stocks. The oscillator is typically calculated using exponential moving averages (EMAs) of the A-D line, with the idea being that crossovers of these EMAs indicate potential changes in the market’s direction.
The integration of A-D volume into this model adds another layer of analysis, as volume is often considered a leading indicator of price movement. By factoring in volume, the strategy becomes more sensitive to not just the number of advancing or declining stocks but also how significant those movements are based on trading volume, as discussed in Schwager, J. D. (1999). Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets. This enhanced version aims to capture stronger and more sustainable trends in the market, helping to filter out false signals.
Additionally, volume analysis is often used to confirm price movements, as described in Wyckoff, R. (1931). The Day Trading System. Therefore, incorporating the volume of advancing and declining stocks in the McClellan Oscillator offers a more robust signal for trading decisions.
Trend Battery [Phantom]Trend Battery
Visualize Trend Strength with a Dynamic EMA Power Gauge
OVERVIEW
The Trend Battery indicator offers a clear, visual representation of trend strength based on the alignment of multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). It assigns a color-coded score to each bar, helping traders quickly assess the prevailing trend's power and direction.
CONCEPT
• Trend Strength Using EMAs: The indicator analyzes the alignment of 20 EMAs (8 to 200 periods) to gauge trend strength. The more EMAs align, the stronger the trend.
• Gradient-Based Visualization: Scores are mapped to a color gradient, transitioning from green (bullish) to purple (bearish), providing an intuitive visual representation of trend momentum.
HOW IT WORKS
Trend Battery calculates 20 EMAs and evaluates their alignment. When EMAs align in a strong trend, the bar colors change (as displayed in battery color key on chart) displaying a spectrum of colors from bright green (strong uptrend) to deep purple (strong downtrend).
• Dynamic Bar Colors:
o Green hues: Strong bullish trends.
o Purple hues: Strong bearish trends.
o Red hues: Weaker trends or potential transitions.
FEATURES
• Dynamic Color Coding: Easy-to-read and instantly assess trend.
• Customizable Transparency: Adjust bar color opacity to your preference.
• Optional EMA Display: Toggle individual EMA lines on/off for additional context.
• Compact Battery View: Quick reference table displaying the gradient color mapping.
SETTINGS
• Transparency: Controls the opacity of bar colors.
• Show EMAs on Chart: Enables/disables plotting of EMA lines.
USAGE
• Identify trend strength and direction.
• Confirm trend reversals or continuations.
• Complement other indicators and strategies.
• Monitor multi-timeframe trends.
TRADE IDEAS:
• For larger timeframes purple hues can be used for accumulating and green hues for distribution.
• For smaller timeframes, color transitions could be a signal for trend reversal, or corrections.
• It is a good idea to use larger timeframes for overall trend directions, and smaller timeframes for entries.
LIMITATIONS
• Lagging Indicator: As the Trend Battery relies on Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), it is inherently a lagging indicator. This means it reflects past price action and may not always provide timely signals for rapid market changes or sudden reversals.
• False Signals in Sideways Markets: In ranging or consolidating markets, the indicator may produce mixed signals (frequent color changes) as EMAs intertwine without a clear trend. This can lead to false interpretations if not considered alongside other market context indicators.
• Not a Standalone System: The Trend Battery is designed to be a visual aid and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. It's most effective when combined with other technical analysis tools, such as oscillators, support/resistance levels, and fundamental analysis.
DISCLAIMER
Use the Trend Battery indicator in conjunction with other forms of analysis and risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Refined SMA/EMA Crossover with Ichimoku and 200 SMA FilterYour **Refined SMA/EMA Crossover with Ichimoku and 200 SMA Filter** strategy is a multi-faceted technical trading strategy that combines several key technical indicators to refine entry and exit points for trades. Here's a breakdown of the components and how they work together:
### 1. **SMA/EMA Crossover**
- **Simple Moving Average (SMA) & Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Crossover**:
- The core idea behind the crossover strategy is to use the relationship between two moving averages to generate buy or sell signals.
- **SMA** (Simple Moving Average) gives an average of past prices over a set period.
- **EMA** (Exponential Moving Average) places more weight on recent prices, making it more responsive to price movements.
- A **bullish crossover** occurs when a shorter period moving average (such as a 50-period EMA) crosses above a longer period moving average (such as a 200-period SMA), signaling a potential buy.
- A **bearish crossover** occurs when a shorter period moving average crosses below the longer period moving average, signaling a potential sell.
### 2. **Ichimoku Cloud**
- The **Ichimoku Cloud** is a versatile indicator that provides insight into trend direction, support and resistance levels, and momentum.
- **Cloud (Kumo)**: The space between the Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B lines. It helps identify whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation.
- **Tenkan-sen** (Conversion Line) and **Kijun-sen** (Base Line): These lines are used for additional confirmation of trend direction.
- **Chikou Span**: A lagging line that is used to confirm the trend.
- The general trading rules based on the Ichimoku Cloud are:
- **Bullish Signal**: When the price is above the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crosses above the Kijun-sen.
- **Bearish Signal**: When the price is below the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crosses below the Kijun-sen.
### 3. **200 SMA Filter**
- The **200 SMA Filter** serves as a long-term trend filter.
- When the price is **above the 200 SMA**, it signals a long-term bullish trend, and you only look for buying opportunities.
- When the price is **below the 200 SMA**, it signals a long-term bearish trend, and you only look for selling opportunities.
- This filter helps to avoid counter-trend trades, aligning your positions with the broader market trend.
### **How the Strategy Works Together**
- **Trade Setup (Long Position)**
1. The **200 SMA Filter** must confirm an **uptrend** by ensuring that the price is above the 200 SMA.
2. A **bullish crossover** (e.g., the 50 EMA crossing above the 200 SMA) occurs.
3. **Ichimoku Cloud** confirms a bullish trend, with the price above the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crossing above the Kijun-sen.
4. You enter a **long trade** with this confluence of signals.
- **Trade Setup (Short Position)**
1. The **200 SMA Filter** must confirm a **downtrend** by ensuring the price is below the 200 SMA.
2. A **bearish crossover** (e.g., the 50 EMA crossing below the 200 SMA) occurs.
3. **Ichimoku Cloud** confirms a bearish trend, with the price below the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crossing below the Kijun-sen.
4. You enter a **short trade** with this confluence of signals.
### **Exit Strategy**
- Exits can be determined based on any of the following:
- **SMA/EMA crossover reversal**: Exit when the shorter-term moving average crosses back below the longer-term moving average for a long position or crosses above for a short position.
- **Ichimoku Cloud reversal**: If the price breaks through the cloud or the Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen lines cross in the opposite direction.
- **Profit target or stop loss**: Setting predefined profit targets or using a trailing stop to lock in profits as the trade moves in your favor.
Summary of the Strategy
This strategy is designed to identify strong trends and avoid false signals by combining:
SMA/EMA crossovers for immediate market direction signals.
Ichimoku Cloud for confirming the strength and trend direction.
A 200
SMA filter to ensure trades align with the long-term trend.
By using these multiple indicators together, the strategy aims to refine entry and exit points, minimize risk, and increase the likelihood of successful trades.
[blackcat] L1 BS Line of Defense █ OVERVIEW
The Pine Script provided is an advanced technical indicator designed to generate reliable buy and sell signals by integrating momentum, moving averages, and price level analyses.

DAILY Supertrend + EMA Crossover with RSI FilterThis strategy is a technical trading approach that combines multiple indicators—Supertrend, Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI)—to identify and manage trades.
Core Components:
1. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
Two EMAs, one with a shorter period (fast) and one with a longer period (slow), are calculated. The idea is to spot when the faster EMA crosses above or below the slower EMA. A fast EMA crossing above the slow EMA often suggests upward momentum, while crossing below suggests downward momentum.
2. Supertrend Indicator:
The Supertrend uses Average True Range (ATR) to establish dynamic support and resistance lines. These lines shift above or below price depending on the prevailing trend. When price is above the Supertrend line, the trend is considered bullish; when below, it’s considered bearish. This helps ensure that the strategy trades only in the direction of the overall trend rather than against it.
3. RSI Filter:
The RSI measures momentum. It helps avoid buying into markets that are already overbought or selling into markets that are oversold. For example, when going long (buying), the strategy only proceeds if the RSI is not too high, and when going short (selling), it only proceeds if the RSI is not too low. This filter is meant to improve the quality of the trades by reducing the chance of entering right before a reversal.
4. Time Filters:
The strategy only triggers entries during user-specified date and time ranges. This is useful if one wants to limit trading activity to certain trading sessions or periods with higher market liquidity.
5. Risk Management via ATR-based Stops and Targets:
Both stop loss and take profit levels are set as multiples of the ATR. ATR measures volatility, so when volatility is higher, both stops and profit targets adjust to give the trade more breathing room. Conversely, when volatility is low, stops and targets tighten. This dynamic approach helps maintain consistent risk management regardless of market conditions.
Overall Logic Flow:
- First, the market conditions are analyzed through EMAs, Supertrend, and RSI.
- When a buy (long) condition is met—meaning the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, the trend is bullish according to Supertrend, and RSI is below the specified “overbought” threshold—the strategy initiates or adds to a long position.
- Similarly, when a sell (short) condition is met—meaning the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA, the trend is bearish, and RSI is above the specified “oversold” threshold—it initiates or adds to a short position.
- Each position is protected by an automatically calculated stop loss and a take profit level based on ATR multiples.
Intended Result:
By blending trend detection, momentum filtering, and volatility-adjusted risk management, the strategy aims to capture moves in the primary trend direction while avoiding entries at excessively stretched prices. Allowing multiple entries can potentially amplify gains in strong trends but also increases exposure, which traders should consider in their risk management approach.
In essence, this strategy tries to ride established trends as indicated by the Supertrend and EMAs, filter out poor-quality entries using RSI, and dynamically manage trade risk through ATR-based stops and targets.
EMA with VWAPThis indicator combines two popular technical analysis tools: the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), into a single, powerful overlay on your chart. It allows you to analyze both trend direction using the EMA and institutional interest and fair value using the VWAP, all while saving valuable indicator slots on your TradingView layout.
Key Features:
- Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
- Calculates the EMA based on a user-defined Length and Source (e.g., close, open, hl2).
- Includes an optional Offset to shift the EMA line forward or backward on the chart.
- Offers a Smoothing Line feature, allowing you to further smooth the EMA using various moving average types (SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, VWMA) with a customizable Smoothing Length.
- EMA and Smoothing Line can be toggled on or off.
- EMA and Smoothing Line have independent offset capabilities.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
-Calculates the VWAP, a crucial indicator that reflects the average price weighted by volume.
- Offers a wide range of Anchor Periods for resetting the VWAP calculation, including: Session, Week, Month, Quarter, Year, Decade, Century, Earnings, Dividends, and Splits.
- Includes an optional Offset to shift the VWAP line.
- Option to Hide VWAP on 1D or Above timeframes to focus on intraday analysis.
- Provides up to three customizable Standard Deviation Bands above and below the VWAP, visually representing volatility and potential support/resistance levels.
- Bands can be calculated using either "Standard Deviation" or "Percentage" methods.
- Bands can be turned on or off independently.
How to Use:
- EMA: Use the EMA to identify the overall trend direction. An upward-sloping EMA suggests an uptrend, while a downward-sloping EMA suggests a downtrend. The Smoothing Line can help confirm the EMA's trend.
- VWAP: The VWAP acts as a benchmark for the "fair" price of an asset during the selected anchor period. Prices above the VWAP may indicate bullish sentiment, while prices below may indicate bearish sentiment.
- Bands: The Standard Deviation Bands can help identify potential overbought and oversold conditions. Price reaching the upper bands might suggest overbought levels, while price reaching the lower bands might suggest oversold levels.
Customization:
- The indicator offers extensive customization through its settings:
- EMA Settings: Adjust the EMA length, source, offset, smoothing method, and smoothing length.
- VWAP Settings: Choose the VWAP anchor period, source, offset, and whether to hide it on daily or higher timeframes.
- VWAP Bands Settings: Control the visibility, multiplier, and calculation method for each of the three standard deviation bands.
Benefits:
- Consolidated Analysis: Combines two essential indicators into one, providing a comprehensive view of price action and volume.
- Saves Indicator Slots: Frees up valuable indicator slots on your TradingView chart.
- Highly Customizable: Offers a wide range of settings to tailor the indicator to your specific trading style and preferences.

This combined EMA and VWAP indicator is a valuable tool for traders of all levels, offering a powerful and flexible way to analyze market trends and identify potential trading opportunities.
3 EMA + RSI with Trail Stop [Free990] (LOW TF)This trading strategy combines three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to identify trend direction, uses RSI to signal exit conditions, and applies both a fixed percentage stop-loss and a trailing stop for risk management. It aims to capture momentum when the faster EMAs cross the slower EMA, then uses RSI thresholds, time-based exits, and stops to close trades.
Short Explanation of the Logic
Trend Detection: When the 10 EMA crosses above the 20 EMA and both are above the 100 EMA (and the current price bar closes higher), it triggers a long entry signal. The reverse happens for a short (the 10 EMA crosses below the 20 EMA and both are below the 100 EMA).
RSI Exit: RSI crossing above a set threshold closes long trades; crossing below another threshold closes short trades.
Time-Based Exit: If a trade is in profit after a set number of bars, the strategy closes it.
Stop-Loss & Trailing Stop: A fixed stop-loss based on a percentage from the entry price guards against large drawdowns. A trailing stop dynamically tightens as the trade moves in favor, locking in potential gains.
Detailed Explanation of the Strategy Logic
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Setup
Short EMA (out_a, length=10)
Medium EMA (out_b, length=20)
Long EMA (out_c, length=100)
The code calculates three separate EMAs to gauge short-term, medium-term, and longer-term trend behavior. By comparing their relative positions, the strategy infers whether the market is bullish (EMAs stacked positively) or bearish (EMAs stacked negatively).
Entry Conditions
Long Entry (entryLong): Occurs when:
The short EMA (10) crosses above the medium EMA (20).
Both EMAs (short and medium) are above the long EMA (100).
The current bar closes higher than it opened (close > open).
This suggests that momentum is shifting to the upside (short-term EMAs crossing up and price action turning bullish). If there’s an existing short position, it’s closed first before opening a new long.
Short Entry (entryShort): Occurs when:
The short EMA (10) crosses below the medium EMA (20).
Both EMAs (short and medium) are below the long EMA (100).
The current bar closes lower than it opened (close < open).
This indicates a potential shift to the downside. If there’s an existing long position, that gets closed first before opening a new short.
Exit Signals
RSI-Based Exits:
For long trades: When RSI exceeds a specified threshold (e.g., 70 by default), it triggers a long exit. RSI > short_rsi generally means overbought conditions, so the strategy exits to lock in profits or avoid a pullback.
For short trades: When RSI dips below a specified threshold (e.g., 30 by default), it triggers a short exit. RSI < long_rsi indicates oversold conditions, so the strategy closes the short to avoid a bounce.
Time-Based Exit:
If the trade has been open for xBars bars (configurable, e.g., 24 bars) and the trade is in profit (current price above entry for a long, or current price below entry for a short), the strategy closes the position. This helps lock in gains if the move takes too long or momentum stalls.
Stop-Loss Management
Fixed Stop-Loss (% Based): Each trade has a fixed stop-loss calculated as a percentage from the average entry price.
For long positions, the stop-loss is set below the entry price by a user-defined percentage (fixStopLossPerc).
For short positions, the stop-loss is set above the entry price by the same percentage.
This mechanism prevents catastrophic losses if the market moves strongly against the position.
Trailing Stop:
The strategy also sets a trail stop using trail_points (the distance in price points) and trail_offset (how quickly the stop “catches up” to price).
As the market moves in favor of the trade, the trailing stop gradually tightens, allowing profits to run while still capping potential drawdowns if the price reverses.
Order Execution Flow
When the conditions for a new position (long or short) are triggered, the strategy first checks if there’s an opposite position open. If there is, it closes that position before opening the new one (prevents going “both long and short” simultaneously).
RSI-based and time-based exits are checked on each bar. If triggered, the position is closed.
If the position remains open, the fixed stop-loss and trailing stop remain in effect until the position is exited.
Why This Combination Works
Multiple EMA Cross: Combining 10, 20, and 100 EMAs balances short-term momentum detection with a longer-term trend filter. This reduces false signals that can occur if you only look at a single crossover without considering the broader trend.
RSI Exits: RSI provides a momentum oscillator view—helpful for detecting overbought/oversold conditions, acting as an extra confirmation to exit.
Time-Based Exit: Prevents “lingering trades.” If the position is in profit but failing to advance further, it takes profit rather than risking a trend reversal.
Fixed & Trailing Stop-Loss: The fixed stop-loss is your safety net to cap worst-case losses. The trailing stop allows the strategy to lock in gains by following the trade as it moves favorably, thus maximizing profit potential while keeping risk in check.
Overall, this approach tries to capture momentum from EMA crossovers, protect profits with trailing stops, and limit risk through both a fixed percentage stop-loss and exit signals from RSI/time-based logic.
