Death Cross Screener

The 50-period moving average crossed below the 200-period one on the last closed bar. It is the mirror of the golden cross and carries the same lag — by the time it prints, the decline is established. Results are limited to tickers with real volume; an illiquid name matching a screen is not a tradeable idea.

How this screen is evaluated

Every ticker is checked on its last closed bar, so a match cannot appear mid-session and disappear at the close. Tickers without enough history to compute the condition are excluded rather than counted as non-matching — a screen needing a 200-period average simply skips a symbol that has traded for fifty days.

Browse the rest of the indicator screens, or combine this condition with a detected chart pattern in the pattern screener.
