DRACO TOMAS EMA Trend Follower
🐉 DRACO TOMAS EMA Trend Follower
Description:
The DRACO TOMAS EMA Trend Follower is a simple yet powerful trend-following strategy designed to capture directional moves based on exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers. It automatically detects trend changes and manages positions dynamically.
Core Logic:
The strategy uses two EMAs — a Fast EMA (default 12) and a Slow EMA (default 21) — to identify the market trend.
When the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, the strategy opens a long position, signaling bullish momentum.
When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA, the strategy opens a short position, signaling bearish momentum.
The color of the EMAs changes dynamically: green for uptrends, red for downtrends.
Exit rules:
Longs are closed when the EMAs turn red (trend reversal to bearish).
Shorts are closed when the EMAs turn green (trend reversal to bullish).
Position Sizing:
The system uses 10% of equity per trade by default, allowing flexible risk management and compounding.
Purpose:
Designed for traders who want a clean and efficient EMA crossover system to follow trends automatically on any timeframe or asset.
Best Used For:
Swing trading and trend confirmation
Identifying major directional shifts
Testing EMA-based momentum systems
