MTF EMA + MACD Short Strategy calculates and plots two higher-timeframe EMAs directly on the price chart while monitoring MACD line crosses and zero-line interactions. Exits are handled through configurable percentage-based or ATR-based stop-loss and take-profit targets, alongside a maximum bar expiration limit. Because the multi-timeframe security calls reference uncompleted higher-timeframe bars differently during backtesting versus live execution, historical signals repaint.
