If you have exceeded the ALV for the month you are done. You can also refuse any trip assignment that will put you over the ALV if you are still under it. You are free to GS and YS however I think there are a few restrictions on the YS as to how much you can pickup. This is off the top of my head. I would download the contract and make sure you understand the rules. I would guess that perhaps half the pilots I speak with on reserve are unaware they can't be forced to fly a trip that projects them over the ALV. You might only have 55 hours but if they try and give you a 24 hour domestic trip and the ALV is 78 hours you can refuse it.
