Pending Gold Orders are used to buy or sell when price quote attains a certain xauusd price target.
When a specific xauusd price level is reached then a pending xauusd order is executed.
Pending Gold Orders are used to enter a gold trade at a specified price level. It's almost impossible to monitor the gold market every second and this is why a pending gold order can be used. If you feel the gold market might take a certain action, such as break through a particular xauusd price level which it has been touching but it hasn't been able to break this level, then as a trader you would want to use a Pending Gold Order. Once the xauusd price quote crosses your specified level, your pending xauusd order is executed.
