Join us for a focused webinar on the “death cross,” a widely followed bearish signal that occurs when the 50-day moving average crosses below the 200-day. We’ll explore its historical performance on major indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100, including periods when it preceded deeper bear markets—such as in 2000, 2008, and 2022—as well as instances when it triggered false alarms or whipsaws during volatile but ultimately bullish reversals.

This session will also cover practical applications of trading. We’ll discuss how to enhance the death cross with confirmation tools, such as MACD, RSI, market breadth, and volatility. You'll learn how traders use it to time entries, manage risk, and adjust exposure during trend transitions. Whether you’re refining your technical toolkit or seeking a deeper understanding of this signal’s merits and limitations, this webinar will provide actionable insights and strategies.
