EMA Cloud Intraday Strategy

This strategy utilizes the 9 and 20 period exponential moving averages to create a colored cloud between similar to what is seen on the Ichimoku Cloud . The strategy closes all trades by the end of the trading day. Entry is when the price closes above a Green (9 EMA above 20 EMA ) cloud or below a Red (9 EMA below 20 EMA ) cloud. Exit is when price closes against the 9 EMA or at the end of the trading day. Running the strategy tester on different intraday time frames will show the best time frame for a given Symbol. For example, I have found that the best results are returned by this strategy for SPY on the 30 minute time frame.
