Marktpassung
Strong directional trends
Accelerating moves
Eintrittsregeln
- Enter long the bar after EMA(12) crosses above EMA(26).
- Cooldown of 2 bars after an exit prevents instant whipsaw re-entries.
- MACD line crosses above its signal line AND
- Histogram is positive — momentum is widening, not contracting.
Ausstiegsregeln
- Close on the down-cross: EMA(12) back below EMA(26).
- Trailing stop of 4% locks in profits if the cross reverses without a clean down-cross.
- MACD line crosses back below the signal line.
- Hard 4% stop; 3% trailing stop on the runner.
Erwartetes Verhalten
Long flat periods broken by sharp upward jumps when a sustained trend lines up — and visible drawdowns during ranging markets when the cross fires both ways inside a few bars.
Slower than a pure EMA cross — fewer false starts, later entries. Equity curve shows fewer trades, smoother PnL, occasional missed early-trend acceleration.
