Oh, it's definitely a EMA golden cross, there is no doubt about it. This post details why: 65748644 it even anticipates the "SMA only" criticism. I don't agree with older text books because 1) they did not have full term algorithmic backtesting 2) 50/200ema crossover is "relatively" new (essentially the evolution of technical analysis as people try to get faster and faster price action indicators).
