EMA Crossover Entries Confirmed by Stochastic RSI Momentum

Summary

This short-term signal system combines an 11-period and 50-period EMA crossover with Stochastic RSI momentum confirmation. A long signal requires the fast EMA to cross above the slow EMA while the Stochastic RSI %K line is above %D; the reverse crossover with %K below %D produces a sell signal. The stated Stochastic RSI settings use a 10-period RSI basis, with 15-period %K smoothing and 7-period %D smoothing.

The document explains the entry logic, risks, and possible additions such as an ADX filter, ATR stop, volatility-based sizing, or longer-timeframe confirmation. It gives backtest settings for ETH_USDT futures on one-minute bars over part of a day, but reports no results. The source closes a long on a sell condition and does not open a short position, so the described symmetric short behavior is not present in the implementation. Ranging markets may cause repeated signals, and the source uses 100% of equity by default without an explicit stop loss; broader testing and risk controls are needed before drawing conclusions.

Key ideas

• Long entries require an upward 11/50 EMA crossover and Stochastic RSI %K above %D.
• The stated Stochastic RSI settings are a 10-period RSI, 15-period %K smoothing, and 7-period %D smoothing.
• The source closes long positions on a sell signal but does not enter short positions.
• The ETH_USDT one-minute backtest settings are provided without performance results.
• Choppy markets, absent explicit stops, and full-equity sizing are key risks.
