EMA Bounce

This indicator will:

  • signal a GREEN triangle if a candle opens below the EMA and closes above the EMA
  • signal a RED triangle if the candle opens above the EMA and closes below the EMA


Strategy:

  • First identify the trend (stick to one timeframe, I use 4h)
  • If in an UP trend, then go LONG on GREEN triangles, do not trade red triangles as that would be a counter-trend trade (I am placing buy stops at the HIGH of the signal candle)
  • If in a DOWN trend, then go SHORT on RED triangles, do not trade on green triangles as that would be a counter-trend trade (I am placing sell stops at the LOW of the signal candle)
  • Default EMA is set to 50, you can change to a higher number for less signals or a lower number for more signal

NOTE: You can set up alerts so that you don't have to watch charts and wait for the signals.
