8 months later, in November of 2019 was Tesla’s last “gold cross” consequently to its death cross, this is an indicator that triggers traders to purchase stock in bulk. Commonly, gold cross takes place when the longer term 200-day moving average is lower than the shorter-term 50-day moving average.
