Golden Cross VS Death Cross

Technical analysis involves the use of statistical analysis to make trading decisions. Technical analysts use a ton of data, often in the form of charts, to analyze stocks and markets. 

• A golden cross indicates a long-term bull market going forward.
• A death cross signals a long-term bear market. 

Both refer to the solid confirmation of a long-term trend by the occurrence of a short-term moving average crossing over a major long-term moving average.
