The EMA Cross Strategy is a fully automated, premium trading strategy developed by Rize Capital specifically for the NinjaTrader 8 platform. This systematic trend-following strategy uses dual Exponential Moving Average (EMAs) crossovers to generate precise long and short entry signals with comprehensive risk management built directly into the execution logic. The strategy works on any instrument and timeframe, automatically executing trades based on EMA crossover patterns whilst maintaining strict position management controls, as demonstrated in Image 1.

The strategy's customisable parameter panel provides complete control over all trading variables through an intuitive settings interface (shown in Image 2 with a white rectangle). Users can adjust the Fast EMA Period and Slow EMA Period to fine-tune the crossover sensitivity, with built-in range limitations preventing negative values. The Stop Loss Distance and Profit Target Distance are configurable in ticks, allowing precise risk-reward ratio management (Image 3, highlighted by a red rectangle). Trade Quantity controls position sizing, whilst all parameters include intelligent defaults that can be modified to match individual trading styles and risk tolerance.


The strategy's calculation mode is optimised for tick-based stop losses and profit targets, providing precise risk control regardless of market volatility or instrument specifications. All risk management parameters can be adjusted through the settings panel without requiring code modifications, making it accessible to traders of all programming skill levels.


When you purchase the EMA Cross Strategy from Rize Capital, you receive complete NinjaScript source code. This provides unlimited customisation potential for advanced users whilst maintaining plug-and-play functionality for those who want to use the default settings.
