Golden Cross

[Happy_Trails]

Ok, this thread is about Golden Cross but seems you guys are talking about the Death Cross. What's the deal?

The death cross occurs when the 50 day moving average crosses below the 200. There are many studies about it out there but the consensus seems to be that it is not very reliable. Price moving above or below the 200 day average is a more consistent indicator. Jason also indicated that the 500 day SMA is a good indicator as well.

Actually the ones I was refering to aren't there anymore, I might have deleted them on accident.

I know what a Death Cross is. Just trying to figure out if that was in fact what you guys were talking about since this thread is for Golden Cross. If someone saw Golden Cross, I wanted to know where...

AGG, been a few months since the 50 crossed the 200.

Thanks Norm but I KNOW the difference. My point is that this thread is for a Golden Cross so I want to know who is sighting one 'cause I don't see one!

I posted that for the Newbies, it's hard enough to get a handle on what's being discussed. When the terms are reversed it just adds to the confusion.

Well, I'm glad everything is cleared. You all had me confused! :nuts:

Lol, I created this thread just for the purpose of talking about the 50/200 crosses, I just haven't been on much this year so it hasn't been updated.

I don't believe it says much with volatility being active - the 200 is still trending up.

Gold puts in a Golden Cross, with QE3 in play, I'll be watching the metals and may take some positions.

I had the good fortune of buying into three positions back in June.

Looks like that death cross back in October was pretty near the bottom of that chart.

A little known fact, some of the best performing moving average cross overs are actually inverse.
