Dell Technologies (DELL) Now Trades Above Golden Cross: Time to Buy?

DELL recently experienced a "golden cross" event, which saw its 50-day simple moving average breaking out above its 200-day simple moving average.There's a reason traders love a golden cross -- it's a technical chart pattern that can indicate a bullish breakout is on the horizon. This kind of crossover is formed when a stock's short-term moving average breaks above a longer-term moving average. Typically, a golden cross involves the 50-day and the 200-day moving averages, since bigger time periods tend to form stronger breakouts.A successful golden cross event has three stages. It first begins when a stock's price on the decline bottoms out. Then, its shorter moving average crosses above its longer moving average, triggering a positive trend reversal. The third and final phase occurs when the stock maintains its upward momentum.A golden cross is the opposite of a death cross, another technical event that indicates bearish price movement may be on the horizon.Over the past four weeks, DELL has gained 9.8%. The company currently sits at a #1 (Strong Buy) on the Zacks Rank, also indicating that the stock could be poised for a breakout.Looking at DELL's earnings expectations, investors will be even more convinced of the bullish uptrend.
