Moving Average Gold Trading Analysis and Moving Average Gold Trading Signals

An indicator that calculates the average value of gold prices (or any specified data series) over a predetermined period of time.

Interpretation

The most popular method of interpreting the Moving Average is to compare the relationship between the Moving Average of the xauusd price with the xauusd price itself. A buy gold signal is generated when the xauusd price rises above its Moving Average and a sell gold signal is generated when the xauusd price falls below its Moving Average.
