This idea is about the use of it.

You always want to go with the trend and trade into the direction that "accelerates" according to the indicator.

When the price accelerates, it is more likely to continue than to reverse.
Also, the volatility will be much greater (momentum) to the acceleration direction.
All the explosive moves happen outside of the acceleration bands.

You can go over many charts and see that the indicator methodology is aligned with good trading principles of great traders such as Darvas Box Trading, and Jesse Livermore entries, and also SMC.

Both of the traders mentioned that expensive and get more expensive...

That is their way to say... when you start to accelerate... you speed faster... and price doesn't look back...

At those specific times, you can put a very tight stop, so your position will yield very high reward in relation to your risk.
