8, 13, 21 EMA Strategy

This EMA strategy is very similar to the triple crossover, but the periods of the EMA’s you are using are different.

These EMA’s are faster reacting moving averages which means that they will be a lot closer to the price action.

These are the three EMA’s you would use if you like making many trades and are more inclined to use strategies like scalping where you are in and out of the markets quickly.

In the example below the 8, 13 and 21 period EMA’s have been added to the chart. When we see the 8 EMA cross above the 13 EMA and then both these EMA’s cross higher above the 21 period EMA we would start looking for long trades. We would then look to profit from the next move higher.
