Overview

With the default lengths, the fastest DEMA crossing the second DEMA is the signal; a third length of zero is ignored, and if both extra lengths are zero it compares close with the first DEMA. Percentage stop-loss and take-profit prices are calculated for long and short positions, and an optional trailing stop is off by default. The excerpt does not show orders being closed by those levels.
