Overview

This strategy is an adaptation of the EMA8 setup from famous Brazilian crypto YouTuber Augusto Backes. It aims to make high probability trades with good risk-reward ratio by utilizing the support of weekly EMA8 and entering at specific price patterns.

Strategy Logic

  • It runs on daily timeframe and uses weekly EMA8 as support and trend filter
  • Buy signal triggers when daily candle closes above weekly EMA8 with bullish price patterns like engulfing, hammer or closing price reversal
  • Sell signal triggers when daily candle closes below weekly EMA8 with bearish patterns like engulfing, shooting star or high wave candle
  • Entries and exits execute on candle close with no stops. 100% position sizing

The strategy efficiently utilizes EMA as support and reasonably controls trade frequency to capture reliable breakouts in major trends for a high risk-reward profile.

Advantage Analysis

  • Increase reliability by using EMAs to gauge major trends and support
  • Only trade around key levels to improve win rate and avoid unnecessary trades
  • Precise trade location and clear signals mean excellent risk-reward ratio
  • Suitable for swing traders. Low maintenance needed

Risk Analysis

  • Full position sizing risks large losses in extreme moves
  • Relatively few trades require strong psychology and sufficient capital
  • Limited profit potential compared to trend following strategies

Improvements:

  • Add position sizing module based on volatility or capital
  • Implement stop loss to further limit loss in single trades
  • Find better trade filters and exit conditions to increase win rate

Conclusion

In summary, this is a very practical swing trading strategy. It utilizes key technical indicators to identify reliable opportunities in major trends. The logic is simple and easy to implement for mid-to-long term traders. With proper position sizing and risk management, it can achieve fantastic returns over time.
