If information is power and time is money, then I'm curious why chartists and technical analysts don't use a 48/49 MA and a 190/195 day MA to detect a "death cross" so that they can take action a day or two before everyone else....?

Aaaarrrgh you have spilled the beans on my TA technique to get one up on everyone else! Now I will have to use the 46/47 day MA and the 185/189 day MA to stay ahead of the crowd. But this time I will have to make sure this new information doesn't leak out. - Pauses for thought - Aaaaaarrrgh!

Haha, my thoughts exactly....trying to detect a "death cross" becomes a "death spiral" as people use shorter and shorter measures....!

Death cross is a lagging indicator - and I don't think that there are a lot of successful investors waiting for it to make their disinvestment decisions. It is just a nice (well, not so nice) confirmation of what everybody thought is going to happen anyway.
Lots of investors use lots of different MA (or EMA) combinations and most investors working with TA will look at a lot of other parameters (volume, momentum, RSI, ....) as well. Looking at the MA's - there is no better or worse combination - it is just, they are either slower but have less false signals or they are faster and have more false signals.
But I am sure you knew that anyway, didn't you?
