A Golden Cross occurs when the 50-day simple moving average crosses above the 200-day average. Plenty of stocks might already have their 50-day over their 200-day average, but purchasing a stock right when the crossover occurs gets you in before most of the gains are about to be made. The Golden Cross is inherently a momentum-based strategy because it waits for the stock to have accumulated some upward price movement. It is a classic technical analysis strategy and can easily be combined with other fundamental analysis strategies in Backtester.
