EMA 10/55/200 - LONG ONLY MTF (4h with 1D & 1W confirmation)
Title: EMA 10/55/200 - Long Only Multi-Timeframe Strategy (4h with 1D & 1W confirmation)
Description:
This strategy is designed for trend-following long entries using a combination of exponential moving averages (EMAs) on the 4-hour chart, confirmed by higher timeframe trends from the daily (1D) and weekly (1W) charts.
🔍 How It Works
🔹 Entry Conditions (4h chart):
EMA 10 crosses above EMA 55 and price is above EMA 55
OR
EMA 55 crosses above EMA 200
OR
EMA 10 crosses above EMA 500
These entries indicate short-term momentum aligning with medium/long-term trend strength.
🔹 Confirmation (multi-timeframe alignment):
Daily (1D): EMA 55 is above EMA 200
Weekly (1W): EMA 55 is above EMA 200
This ensures that we only enter long trades when the higher timeframes support an uptrend, reducing false signals during sideways or bearish markets.
🛑 Exit Conditions
Bearish crossover of EMA 10 below EMA 200 or EMA 500
Stop Loss: 5% below entry price
⚙️ Backtest Settings
Capital allocation per trade: 10% of equity
Commission: 0.1%

These are realistic conditions for crypto, forex, and stocks.
