First, there must be a downtrend in a stock's price that eventually bottoms out. Then, the stock's shorter moving average crosses over its longer moving average, triggering a positive trend reversal. The third stage is when a stock continues the upward momentum to higher prices.This kind of chart pattern is the opposite of a death cross, which is a technical event that suggests future bearish price movement.Shares of FIGS have been moving higher over the past four weeks, up 11.7%.
