// This indicator provides 5 Exponential Moving Averages.
// Works well on 1D,4H,1H TF
// To be used with traditional trend following strategies.
// Example
// If 50/100/200 trending in same direction. Then buy/sell
// with trend direction. Use PA, pinbar, news catalyst
// or pullback to 50E for Entry signal.
// Use 2x ATR for SL, set no TP. Ride the trend to the end.

// in volitile markets.
// As always use at your own risk and stay awesome.

Release Notes
Works well with RSI 26, as shown and my value channel system,
I use the 5XEMA on 1H for support and resistance ideas in confluence with Fib or Percentage pullback zones.

I use Weekly, Daily and 1H Charts for overall big picture ideas and then price action for entry and exits.

I trade the first 35-45 minutes of the TSX/TSXV open, I do not wait for the candle to print, but watch live price action due to 15 minute delay of my charts.
I use my charts only for historical data and for watching zones.

Release Notes
