Not Your Daddy's EMA Crossover
Not Your Daddy's EMA Crossover - Quick Guide
What It Does
This isn't your typical 50/200 EMA crossover. It uses academically-proven, optimized EMA periods specifically backtested for crypto markets. Instead of generic settings, it adapts to different trading styles with research-backed parameter combinations that have demonstrated real returns.
Core Logic
Enters when fast EMA crosses slow EMA in the trend direction (confirmed by 200 SMA filter)
Exits either on opposite EMA cross (trend-following) or at fixed profit targets (scalping)
Uses a 200 SMA to filter trades - only longs above it, only shorts below it
Key Settings & Toggles
1. Trading Style (Auto-adjusts EMA periods):
"15 Min Scalping": 9/21 EMA - Fast-paced, frequent signals
"1 Hour Swing": 13/48 EMA - For swing trading
"Daily Trend": 15/150 MA - Captured +97.87% in bull runs
2. Entry Method:
"Crossover Entry": Enters immediately on EMA cross
"Pullback to EMA Entry": Waits for first pullback to slow EMA (better risk/reward)
3. Exit Method:
"EMA Cross Exit": Trend-following, lets winners run until EMAs reverse
"Fixed % Target (Scalping)": Quick 0.5-1% profits with tight stops
4. Optional Features:
MACD Confirmation: Adds 6-15-1 MACD filter for higher-probability setups
Periodic Compounding: Compounds every 30 hours (research shows 1-30 hour compounding is optimal)
Recommended Timeframes
📊 Match your chart to your selection:
Select "15 Min Scalping" → Use 15-minute chart
Select "1 Hour Swing" → Use 1-hour chart
Select "Daily Trend" → Use daily chart
I personally like this on the daily, which coincidentally is printing a long signal today on Bitcoin.
Enjoy!
