XAUUSD Break Out Strategy Indicators
With consolidation patterns the market can go in any direction after a gold price breakout. Consolidation xauusd setups are used to spot break-out setups in charts. There are 2 types of consolidation patterns that form on charts:
- Symmetric Triangles - Consolidation Patterns
- Rectangle Patterns - Range Gold Setup Patterns
Consolidation Chart Setup Patterns
Symmetrical triangles are patterns with converging trend lines that form a gold price consolidation period that signals there's going to be a gold price break out in one direction after this chart pattern setup breaksout in one direction. The buy signal from a consolidation triangle is the upside gold price break, while a down-side gold price break is a sell signal. Ideally, a the price breaks-out from a consolidation chart pattern setup prior to reaching the apex of the triangle.
XAUUSD Trend lines trend lines can be plotted connecting the lows and highs of the consolidation pattern for the price, the trend lines formed are consolidation and converge to form an apex - consolidation triangle pattern. A price break out should occur somewhere between 60% & 80 % into the triangle consolidation pattern. An early or late xauusd trading break-out is more prone to whipsaws, and therefore less reliable. After a gold price breakout to one side the apex of the consolidation triangle forms the support and resistance levels for the price. Price that has broken out of the consolidation chart pattern setup shouldn't retrace past the apex. The apex is used as a stoploss setting level for the open trade transactions set after a gold price break out.
