3 EMA Trend Strategy (Locks Trailing Stop Tightening)3 EMA Trend Strategy (with Trailing Stop Tightening)
This open-source strategy uses three Exponential Moving Averages (7, 21, 35) to detect bullish alignment and trigger long entries during strong upward trends.
* Entry Logic:
A long trade is triggered when EMA 7 > EMA 21 > EMA 35. This alignment signals a confirmed uptrend.
* Exit Logic:
The strategy uses a trailing stop mechanism.
An initial stop (e.g., 10%) follows the high since entry.
Once profit reaches a customizable threshold (e.g., 20%), the trailing stop tightens (e.g., to 5%) to help lock in gains.
* Backtest Settings (default):
Starting capital: $10,000
Commission: 0.1%
Slippage: 1 tick
Position sizing: 100% of equity per trade (can be reduced to lower risk)
* Customization:
All trailing logic and EMA settings are configurable.
Designed for swing trading and adaptable for multiple timeframes.
