XAUUSD Trading 20 Pips XAUUSD Price Range Moving Average XAUUSD Strategy
The 20 pips gold price range moving average xauusd strategy is used on the 1 Hour xauusd chart and 15 minute xauusd chart. On the 1 hour and 15 minutes xauusd chart time frames we use the 100 and 200 simple moving average xauusd technical indicator.
Both the 1 Hour and 15 minute xauusd chart time frames will use the 100 and 200 SMA (Simple Moving Average Indicator) to determine the direction of the XAUUSD market trend.
The 1 Hour xauusd chart time frame checks the long term direction of the XAUUSD trend, upward or downward trend, depending on the direction of the moving averages. All gold trades opened should be opened in this xauusd trend direction.
We then use the 15 minute xauusd chart to find the optimal point to enter gold trades. XAUUSD trades are opened only when the gold price is within 20 pips range of the 200 simple moving average, if gold price is not within this pip range gold trades are not opened.
