// Evidence: structural-only; no TradingView compile/chart record exists.
// Uses chart-timeframe values and default strategy recalculation/order-processing settings.
// With default semantics, signals are calculated at bar close; new orders are normally first eligible on the next tick.
// TradingView must verify actual chart behavior.
// Commission is a fixed 0.1% example assumption; slippage is not configured.
// Stops/targets use the signal bar's close and ATR, not from a confirmed actual fill price.
// No alert workflow is configured in this example.

Overview

EMA Cross Strategy [trugurpala] enters a long position when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, and enters a short position on a cross under unless long-only mode is active. Stop loss and take profit levels are set dynamically based on ATR multiples relative to the signal bar close. Inputs allow configuring EMA lengths, ATR period, exit multipliers, and long-only execution. The indicator overlays the two EMAs directly on the price chart.
