Stocks where the 50-day moving average has just crossed above the 200-day — a classic bullish trend-change signal.
A Golden Cross is when a stock's 50-day moving average rises above its 200-day moving average. Because it requires sustained strength, it is a widely-watched signal that the long-term trend has turned up.
This screen lists stocks where that crossover happened in the latest session — a fresh Golden Cross, not an old one.
Strota computes the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages from daily closes. A Golden Cross is flagged when the 50-DMA is above the 200-DMA today but was at or below it on the prior session.
Only fresh crossovers are shown, so the list highlights new trend changes rather than stocks that crossed long ago.
A Golden Cross is a lagging trend signal — it confirms strength rather than predicting it, and can whipsaw in choppy markets. It is information, not advice.
What is a Golden Cross?
A Golden Cross occurs when a stock's 50-day moving average crosses above its 200-day moving average — a classic signal that the long-term trend has turned bullish.
Does this show fresh crossovers only?
Yes. Strota flags a Golden Cross only when the 50-DMA is above the 200-DMA today but was at or below it the previous session, so the list shows new crossovers, not old ones.
Is a Golden Cross reliable?
It is a lagging trend-confirmation signal that can whipsaw in sideways markets. It works best as confirmation alongside other evidence, and is not buy/sell advice.
What's the opposite signal?
A Death Cross — the 50-DMA crossing below the 200-DMA — is the bearish counterpart.
