Gold tends to go up in the first quarter of the year as well as during the last months of the year. The first step is to buy gold in the months when Gold price tends to increase. It tends to happen at the beginning of the year (in January and February).
In this strategy, a trader would look to buy gold if a shorter-term moving average crossed above a longer-term moving average and sell when the shorter-term moving average crosses below the longer-term average.
The amount of money you need to trade gold varies based on the method you choose. In forex, you can start with a relatively small capital, sometimes as low as $100.
Although Gold, like the rest of the forex market, is tradable 24/5, it is traded the most during the London trading session (08:00-18:00 GMT), since these are the most active trading hours for gold, as seen by the usually high trading volume.
It is one of the most popular strategies among gold scalpers. It got its name for the 5-minute timeframe, which means you are supposed to perform a trade within the next 5 minutes. However, it is not as simple as some may think, as it calls for the H1 period to perform the major trend analysis.
The experience shows that the most active gold trading hours are between 3 pm and 11 pm GMT+3 (generally, during North American trading sessions). European sessions also come with enough activity although slightly lower if compared to North America. Here, the best gold trading hours are between 10 am and 6 pm GMT+3.
Trading gold is one way for beginners to diversify your trading portfolio. Different assets, like stocks, bonds, and commodities, react differently to market events. Beginners can include gold as a different asset in your trading strategy to spread your risk across different asset classes.
Companies that specialize in mining and refining gold will also profit from a rising gold price. Investing in these types of companies can be an effective way to profit from gold and can carry lower risk than other investment methods. The largest gold mining companies boast extensive global operations.
One of the ways beginners can implement the most profitable trading strategies effectively is by embracing the buy-and-hold strategy. This involves researching companies with solid fundamentals and stable earnings, then holding their stocks for a long time without being swayed by short-term market fluctuations.
