Advance-Decline Line
Advance-Decline Line
With so much talk of this indicator in the media, I though it would be useful to throw some light on this market breath indicator. The Advancing-Declining Issues is calculated simply by subtracting the number of declining issues from the number of advancing issues. This difference between the number of advancing and declining issues is the foundation of many market breadth indicators. These indicators include the Advance/Decline Line, Advance/Decline Ratio, Absolute Breadth Index, Breadth Thrust, McClellan Oscillator and Summation Index. Indicators that use advancing and declining issues in their calculations are called market breadth indicators. The AD Line peaks out well ahead of the more widely followed market indices and averages. It provides such useful information as: Overall market strength Rising or falling trends Whether the trend is intact, and The length of the current trend Interpretation The AD Line is a good indicator of overall market strength; and many feel it is more revealing than popular indices such as BSE Sensex, NSE Nifty, etc. This is because the AD line is usually calculated on all the stocks listed in the markets rather than just 30 or 50 stocks that make up the major indices. When the AD line is rising, more stocks are advancing than declining and the A/D Line moves up. When the AD line is falling, more stocks are declining than advancing and the A/D Line moves down. Those of you who may be interested can view that attached chart of NSE 50 with the AD Line overlaid. You can see that although the NSE 50 continuous to make new highs the AD Line (Red Line) is declining. Last edited by TATrader; 21st June 2005 at 12:51 PM.

Re: Advance-Decline Line
Dear TATrader,
I have Metastock pro7. I do not have the Indicators that you have mentioned in your very informative article ( Advance/Decline Line, Advance/Decline Ratio, Absolute Breadth Index, Breadth Thrust, McClellan Oscillator and Summation Index). Please provide me the information where we can get the formulas for the above. If you have the formula can you send it to my email id. Or you can also give the formula here in this forum. Thanking you in advance. gvnarendra

Number of advancing issues and Number of declining issues The A/D Line is calculated by subtracting the number of stocks that declined in price for the day from the number of stocks that advanced, and then adding this value to a cumulative total. The A/D Ratio is calculated by dividing the number of stocks that advanced in price for the day by the number of stocks that declined. The Absolute Breadth Index is calculated by taking the absolute value of the difference between number of Advancing stocks and Declining stocks. The Breadth Thrust is a market momentum indicator. Calculated by dividing a 10-day exponential moving average of the number of advancing issues by the number of advancing plus declining issues, a "Breadth Thrust" occurs when the indicator rises from below 40% to above 61.5%. This indicates that the market has rapidly changed from an oversold condition to one of strength yet has not become overbought. The McClellan Oscillator is the difference between 19-day and 39-day exponential moving averages of advancing minus declining issues. The Summation Index is a popular market breadth indicator that is ultimately derived from the number of advancing and declining stocks in a given market. It is derived from the McClellan Oscillator by tracking its daily accumulation or "summation". This provides a longer-term view of the McClellan concept. Many people regard it as an excellent indicator of the overall "health" of the market and the market's current trend. Summation Index = 1000 + (10%Trend - 5%Trend) - ((10 x 10%Trend) + (20 x 5%Trend)) where: 5%Trend = 39-day EMA of (Advancers-Decliners) 10%Trend = 19-day EMA of (Advancers-Decliners)
