These are also known as internal market momentum studies and comprises of studies such as the advance-decline ratio, net new highs etc. For example, NSE has say total 960 stocks. If on a particular day 300 advanced and 660 declined, we can say that the market breadth was poor. ss

I think the Total Buy/Sell quantity is the pending total limit orders in oredrbook.
If they are trades already done, they wud be equal( Corect me if i am wrong) BTW does anybody look at orderbooks, they move very wildly 99% of the times |
