I see a lot of people still not fully understanding AVL, you know? This indicator is really useful even for those who want to better understand asset movements. Basically, the Average Value Line works as a reference for the average value of the asset over a period, and it usually stays close to the current price because it reflects recent prices.
The cool thing is that you can use AVL in various ways. Like, when the price consistently stays above the line, you can see an uptrend forming. Conversely, when the price is below, it might be a sign of a downtrend coming. Just like that.
Now, entry and exit signals are also interesting. When the price crosses the AVL from below to above, many see it as a buy signal. The opposite also applies—if it crosses from above to below, it might be time to sell. But here’s the important point: you can't rely on this alone.
What I do is combine AVL with other indicators like moving averages, RSI, or MACD. This multiple confirmation greatly reduces false signals. And for protection, I set my stop-loss slightly below the line for buys, or above for sells. This significantly limits damage in case of a wrong move.
You have to remember that no indicator is perfect, you know? AVL is a cool tool, but it needs to be accompanied by fundamental analysis and a broader market view. I’ve been tracking some assets like EOS, BERA, and CRV using this approach, and the results have been much more consistent. It’s worth testing and seeing how it works in your trading.
