Closing Line Value compares your entry with a defined market close. It is a useful market-relative price diagnostic, but its interpretation depends on the close definition, timing, venue, and sample.
There is no universal trade-count threshold that makes CLV reliable. Judge uncertainty using the dependence structure, close definition, market regime, and effect size; same-game observations should not be treated as independent. Read the full breakdown in our closing line value guide.
