No bearish cross done today.. you need to upload data for minimum 250 days to get the right picture and EMAs
Cheers

Well said SH,
Infact nifty spot was around the 200ema value (8750) for most part of the day and has bounced from there. If the closing is above 8750, would go long.[/quote]
50 points gain, booked half. SH ...

Hello Alchemist,
I went through the entire thread and the strategy looks profitable. I do have few question for you:
1) What is the justification of using 5 and 200 period EMA? Is it based on some backtesting or just a wild guess?
2) Why do you use EMA instead of SMA? As per my analysis, SMA gives more accurate results on longes periods like 200.
Thanks,
Snehil

1) Wild guess
2) Please use SMA if you think its better.

Hello Alchemist,
I backtested this strategy on 30 min NIFTY Spot chart of 2 years. Below are the buy/sell expressions:
Buy: CROSSOVER(EMA(CLOSE,5),EMA(CLOSE,200))=TRUE
Sell: CROSSOVER(EMA(CLOSE,200),EMA(CLOSE,5))=TRUE OR CROSSOVER(EMA(CLOSE,34),EMA(CLOSE,5))=TRUE
Please find attached the backtesting results. The calculations are based on 1 Lot of NIFTY.
The strategy doesn't seem very profitable. Please share your thoughts.
Thanks,
Snehil

Snehil,
You tested with 1 lot. Its critical to trade with atleast 2 lots. So that the first lot gives us 60-70 points. And the second lot continues to trade. I would also suggest to book the second lot at 17 EMA crossover rather than 34 EMA.
Alchemist can guide us more.
Thanks

Yep - previous sell signal negated at 8830 NF so lost 40 points ... had booked 65 points yesterday on 50% so still a profitable trade.
now longs from 8830 running ... 50% to be booked at around 8900
Cheers

snehil - run it for last one month and show us the result ....I have made 600+ points in last one month and all trades are tracked here in this thread.... lets see if that matches your backtesting tool.
Cheers
