Golden Cross Pattern

Definition

The Golden Cross pattern is a bullish technical indicator appearing on a chart when a short-term moving average crosses above a long-term moving average. This pattern is often interpreted by traders as a signal for a potential upward price trend for an asset, suggesting growing buying pressure. It is typically formed by the 50-day moving average crossing above the 200-day moving average. While not a definitive predictor, it frequently precedes significant market rallies in digital asset markets.
