Price / EMA 26 Crossover Strategy
This strategy is based on price / EMA 26 crossovers.
EMA 26 is a moving average of price for the past 26 days, with slightly higher emphasis on the recent days.
It's a good trend indicator.
It eliminates some of the noisy day-to-day price swings to keep you from over-trading.
Strategy rules:
1. BUY when price crosses and closes above EMA 26.
2. SELL when price crosses and closes below EMA 26.
Simple enough? Yup. That's the beauty of it.
