Comportement attendu
Slower than a pure EMA cross — fewer false starts, later entries. Equity curve shows fewer trades, smoother PnL, occasional missed early-trend acceleration.
Intraday classic — fires on the first decisive break of yesterday's range. Strong in trend days, choppy when price oscillates around the PDH/PDL.
