The only significant difference between various types of MAs is weight assigned to most recent data. Simple moving averages apply equal weight to the xauusd prices. Exponential and weighted averages apply more weight to recent xauusd prices.

Interpretation

The most popular technique of interpreting the MA indicator is to compare the relationship between the MA of the xauusd price with the xauusd price itself. A buy trading signal is generated when the price rises above its Moving Average & a sell signal is generated when the price falls below its Moving Average.
