A technical indicator emerged to spell caution to those looking to buy-the-dip.
The Death Cross is a technical analysis pattern in the stock market that occurs when a short-term moving average crosses below a long-term moving average. Typically, the Death Cross involves the 50-day moving average crossing below the 200-day moving average.
In the chart above, Apple stock’s 50-day simple moving average (SMA) (orange line) can be seen approaching the 200-day SMA (blue line) from above to make a Death Cross signal. This pattern is considered bearish and may suggest a potential reversal of an uptrend, indicating that a stock or market might be entering a period of decline.
