The Aroon indicator measures the strength and direction of a trend by analyzing the time since an asset’s recent highs (Aroon Up) and lows (Aroon Down).

When the Aroon Up line is at 100% or near it, an asset’s recent highs have become more frequent, strengthening the bullish momentum and the potential for a sustained uptrend. For AB, this validates its uptick in the past seven days and hints that its upward push may still have room to run.

Furthermore, readings from AB’s Directional Movement Index (DMI) support this bullish outlook. At press time, the token’s positive directional indicator (+DI; blue) rests above the negative directional indicator (-DI; blue), showing the bullish tilt in sentiment among AB holders.

The DMI indicator measures the strength of an asset’s price trend. It consists of two lines: the +DI, which represents upward price movement, and the -DI, which means downward price movement.

When an asset’s +DI rests above its -DI, upward price movements are stronger than downward ones, indicating a bullish trend. The widening gap between the two lines on the AB/USD one-day chart confirms the stronger directional momentum in favor of the bulls.
