     - Sell when the price is below the moving average (bearish trend).

2. Breakout Strategy
   - How it Works: Trade when the price breaks out of a defined support or resistance level.  
   - Indicators: Bollinger Bands, Support and Resistance Levels.  
   - Steps:  
     - Place a buy order when the price breaks above resistance.
