There is no perfect way to do this (just as there is no perfect way to determine entries or exits), but notice that in strong trends the price tends to stay away from the moving average for many bars.
So you could come up with an objective criteria: if the price is away from MA for an X number of bars, consider the market trending.
Happy Trading!
