btc_ema_cross
EMA Crossover with anti-whipsaw debounce: holds 100% Bitcoin when its close is above the 50-day EMA and 100% cash when below, but trades at most once every 7 calendar days. A cross that reverses inside the cooldown is ignored; a sustained cross executes as soon as the cooldown clears (so a real trend is not missed).
