True Strength Index Gold Trading Analysis & TSI Gold Trading Signals
True XAUUSD Trend Indicator
Developed by William Blau
TSI is a momentum indicator. The TSI is drawn by using a momentum calculation that reacts faster and is more responsive to xauusd trading price changes, making it a leading indicator that follows xauusd trading price action direction closely in the xauusd market.
The TSI is drawn as a blue line, the indicator also plots a signal line which is drawn as a redline, and these two lines are used to generate cross over signals.
TSI also plots a histogram which shows the difference between the TSI Line & the Signal-line. This histogram crosses above the or below the center lines, histogram levels above the center-line shows a bullish crossover signal, while center-line levels below the center-line shows a bearish cross-over signal.
XAUUSD Trading Analysis & Generating Gold Trading Signals
The TSI uses various methods to generate xauusd trading signals. This gold indicator can be used in the same way as the RSI to determine general gold trend direction of the xauusd markets. Overbought and oversold levels can also be shown using TSI. The most common methods of generating trading signals are:
Zero line XAUUSD Trading Crossover ( Histogram XAUUSD Trading crossover not Lines Gold Trading crossover)
- Buy - when the histogram crosses above 0 a buy is generated
- Sell - when the histogram crosses below the 0 a sell is generated
Gold Trading Signal line XAUUSD Trading Crossover
- A buy is generated when TSI line crosses above Signal Line
- A sell is generated when TSI line crosses below the Signal Line
This signal is the same as the one above and the timing corresponds to the time when the histogram cross-overs happen.
