# MACDandRSI

Crossovers are one of the main moving average strategies.\
The first type is a price crossover, which is when the price crosses above or below a moving average to signal a potential change in trend.\
\
Another strategy is to apply two moving averages to a chart: one longer and one shorter.\
When the shorter-term [MA](../indicators/moving-average-ma) crosses above the longer-term MA, it's a buy signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting up.\
This is known as a "**Golden cross**".\
\
Meanwhile, when the shorter-term MA crosses below the longer-term MA, it's a sell signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting down.\
This is known as a "**Dead/Death cross**".
