The term on the left ALWAYS crosses ABOVE the term on the right.
Intuitively, we think the faster moving indicator is doing the crossing, but the scan engine doesn't "know" which is faster moving.
So, if you want slope crossing above its EMA, slope goes on the left (as you have it).
If you want the ema crossing above slope, you would put ema on the left, where slope is now.0
