Why Triple EMA Trend Works on USTEC
The triple-EMA system uses 8/21/55 EMAs. Long entries fire only when EMA8 > EMA21 > EMA55 (full bullish stack). The triple confirmation cuts whipsaws relative to a simple crossover at the cost of later entries. Excellent on assets that trend cleanly — XAUUSD, BTC, indices.
Nasdaq 100 (USTEC) is the high-beta cousin of the S&P. Sharper moves, longer trends, deeper drawdowns. Strong momentum and breakout candidate.
Equity indices reflect aggregate corporate earnings, sentiment, and Fed policy. They trend more cleanly than individual stocks and gap less than commodities.
