Methodology / step-by-step framework (9/20 EMA trend strategy)
1) Use one core strategy
- Only use: 9 EMA / 20 EMA crossover
2) Trend qualification (“trend riding” logic)
- If price is below the 9/20 EMA → treat as downtrend; do not aim for long-term longs.
- If price breaks and holds above the 9/20 EMA and momentum resumes → consider longs as a trend change.
3) Avoid range-bound / “stuck” markets
- When price chops around the EMAs (frequent crossing):
- Stop-loss hunting becomes likely
- Strategy explicitly notes this drawback
- Suggests reducing quantity or avoiding trading
4) Confirmation requirement (before entry)
- A mistake mentioned: entering against the trend without confirmation
- Look for a combination of confirmation elements, such as:
- W-type pattern / support reaction below the 9/20 EMA
- Neckline formed by price action
- “Change of character” (smart money concept phrasing)
- Close above the 9/20 EMA plus additional confirmation (e.g., a large candle / breakout attempt)
5) Execution and risk management
- Stop-loss logic:
- Place stop-loss below a swing low
- Mentions initial stop planning using ATR, then refining after observing trade behavior
- Stop adjustment:
- Move stop to reduce risk as price advances (e.g., to the low of a later candle once trend direction becomes clearer)
6) Target setting (profit-taking discipline)
- Targets near the nearest resistance (supply) / demand zone
- Avoid “hope-based” extensions—exit when logical levels are reached
- For intraday trades, targets may be more conservative (e.g., until the breakout / next nearby level) due to chop risk
Explicit recommendations / cautions
- Never enter without confirmation.
- Do not expect immediate tops/bottoms right after the first crossover—wait for structure and breakout behavior.
- In range markets, reduce trade size or avoid trading because EMA flips increase stop-outs.
- Targets must be logical (nearest supply/demand), not arbitrary.
- Fees/charges matter: overtrading (too many scalps) can amplify losses even when the stated risk-reward is similar.
Notes on trading frequency / performance attribution
- Better results are attributed to:
- Fewer, higher-quality trades
- Letting trades ride trend on the right timeframe:
- 1H for the main trade
- 15M and shorter for follow-through
- Warning: overtrading (frequent entries on 1–3–5 minute charts) increases “pressure” and makes charges more damaging, potentially flipping outcomes.
