Simple EMA Trend Strategy – Your Thoughts?

[romariot]

Hi traders,

I’m testing a very simple trend-following strategy and would like some opinions.

Setup:

Timeframe: H1 / H4

Indicators: 50 EMA, 200 EMA

Rules:

Buy only above 200 EMA, sell only below

Enter after pullback to 50 EMA with strong candle close

Stop loss at recent swing

Target minimum 1:2 RR or next S/R level

Pros:

Simple and clean

Helps avoid counter-trend trades

Cons:

Weak during ranging markets

Do you trade with EMAs? Any filters you’d add or keep it simple?

Thanks.
