20.67%Best Return
0.9Sharpe Ratio
How It Works
Uses three Exponential Moving Averages (8, 21, 55 periods) to confirm trend direction. Only enters when all three align: fast > medium > slow = bullish trend. This triple confirmation reduces false signals compared to simple dual-MA crossovers. NVDA's strong trending behavior makes it an excellent candidate for this approach.
