Some handy signals in the technical analysis allow you to choose promising stocks to buy. One of them is a Golden Star.

Golden Star is a technical signal first introduced in 2007 by Jim Stromberg at getagraph.com. The signal derives from the well-known Golden Cross but differs by adding more conditions for the signal to appear. For instance, the moving averages have to be selected based on the time frame. In addition, it has to cross the price line at a given pattern. All that and more convert the very good Golden Cross into a Golden Star.

Using this signal, you should always look at the history of the stock (chart) to better understand the potential. Some stocks will use a long time to take out their full potential. The signal is delayed by a minimum of 2 trading days which is needed to confirm it.

Speaking about gains.
