A trader may use trend lines or moving averages to determine the overall market trend. After determining the market xauusd trend then the trader can use their strategy to open trades.
For example a trader may determine that the market xauusd trend is upward by using moving averages. The trader may then use a xauusd indicator such as Bollinger bands and open trades once the price retraces to the lower Bollinger band because this lower band will act as the support level of price. Therefore the trading strategy that the trader will be using is the strategy of resistance and support levels & the trader will be using Bollinger bands to determine these points and open and close trades based on these points.
