 AVG() is a function that takes two arguments with a comma in between them.

AVG(w,x) -> Simple Moving Average

Where w is the Number or Indicator to which a Function is applied.
- w cannot be a formula or function for AVG()
Where x is the Period of the Indicator or Function.

The arguments in functions are separated by commas.

So, assuming you want to know if Simple TSV13 is above its own 21-Period Simple Moving Average, you would want to try the following instead:

TSV13 > AVG(TSV13,21)
