Market Breadth and UP/Down volume


Guest backwardation

Question

Guest backwardation

Hello, I'm looking for a market breadth indicator for indices.  It is simply computed on a stock market by taking the ratio of the number of advancing stocks to declining stocks.  Looks like this: 

 

 

I'm also looking for an UP/Down volume indicator that shows the volume of long to short.  Its useful in identifying reversals.  This would only work for instruments with real volume not tick volume.  Looks like this:

Do we have anything similar on IG's platform or on PRT?

One of the best market breadth indicators is Advance Decline which comes as either a line or ratio, see pic below.

@Caseynotes I Found this bull/bear volume indicator for ProRealTime.  I haven't used it yet, but it seems nice. https://www.prorealcode.com/prorealtime-indicators/bear-bull-volume-indicator/ 

 

 

@dmedin  you should take a look at this, so instead of the volume bar being coloured by whether there were more long or short contracts (maybe a lot, may be just a few) there is an actual breakdown of the amount of long or short.

This is really handy.  I've got it added to PRT.  👍

I've been playing with it for the past few hours.  It's very impressive and helpful.  I still can't decide if the moving average crossovers are valuable, but the dual colored bars definitely do give an edge.

    • DeFi holds incredible promise, but it’s not without its obstacles. Smart contract vulnerabilities, scalability concerns, security risks, and a lack of consumer protection all need to be addressed for it to reach its full potential. Take WUSD, for instance. It’s a stablecoin pegged to the US Dollar, designed to offer stability for payments and trading. While that sounds great in theory, it’s important to remember that, like any DeFi project, WUSD comes with its own set of risks that need careful consideration. WUSD aims to connectTradFi with DeFi by establishing a global network for real-time payments. While the idea is promising, there are still significant concerns about security, regulatory challenges, and scalability. Smart contracts can have bugs, and the unregulated nature of DeFi means that sudden legal or regulatory changes could have a big impact on projects like this. Ultimately, the real challenge will be whether WUSD and similar solutions can gain enough trust to be used in everyday transactions, without falling into the same pitfalls that many DeFi projects have faced. Issues around security, scalability, and regulation remain major roadblocks, and there’s still a lot of uncertainty about how these projects will evolve. For now, though, they’re an intriguing alternative, and I’ve decided to pick up some WUSD on Bitget as a way to diversify away from USDT.
    • The crypto community is buzzing with excitement as Bitcoin (BTC) is once again capturing attention with growing expectations for a rally toward the $100,000 mark. Here’s an analysis of why traders are setting their sights on this key psychological milestone and what factors are fueling this optimistic sentiment. -Bitcoin Halving Cycle Anticipation Bitcoin’s next halving event, expected in 2024, reduces the reward miners receive for verifying transactions, thus lowering the supply of new BTC entering circulation. Historically, halvings have preceded major price rallies, and the anticipation of this event has many traders betting on a price surge. -Bullish Technical Indicators Recent technical analysis shows that BTC is forming a “cup and handle” pattern, a classic bullish signal that often precedes major price increases. Key support levels have held up in recent weeks  -What’s Next for Bitcoin? Traders are watching for key indicators that could confirm the path to $100,000, including ETF approvals, stability in the broader market, However, long-term holders are generally optimistic, seeing BTC's potential for continued growth. Where are you holding is it on DEX or CEX ?      
    • Been following the tech space lately and came across something pretty interesting, peaq. It’s a Layer-1 blockchain, but not in the usual sense. They’re focused on creating decentralized infrastructure networks (DePIN) for machines, where over 850,000 connected devices, robots, and machines can interact, make payments, and even verify data without human involvement. It’s automation at a whole new level. I like the fact that peaq is giving machines their own identities with peaq ID, and allowing them to pay each other with peaq pay. This could change industries like logistics, energy, and IoT, where autonomous, secure machine-to-machine transactions are critical. Imagine how much smoother things could run if machines could operate seamlessly together. I’ve also seen some exchanges promoting events related to it recently. Still early, but if peaq can pull this off, it could pave the way for decentralized infrastructure in an increasingly automated world. Anyone else thinking about where this could go?
