We all have heard of DMA which stands for day moving average and here comes the importance of 50 DMA and 200 DMA.
Golden Crossover
A golden crossover is considered to have undertaken whenever stock or index or underlying asset has its 50 DMA cross over the 200DMA. This is considered a bullish phenomenon. Just a point to note for technical analysis is that till the golden cross holds, the long term view would also remain bullish.
Golden Crossover Nifty
The golden cross is a longer term event. In Indian context we can say that a golden crossover occurred in Nifty in February 2012. The below chart on Nifty elucidates the event.
In other terms we can state that a golden crossover occurs when a short-term moving average breaks above its long-term moving average. Now it is not essential that it is 50 DMA crossing over 200 DMA as same phenomenon will occur say when 50 DMA crosses 50 DMA.
