What are Breadth Charts?

Breadth Charts are made up of the index advance/decline issues and the new high/low tracking. The Breadth charts are tracked mainly for the New York Stock Exchange, The Nasdaq Stock Exchange, and the Amex Stock Exchange.

The Breadth charts are a under valued tool for technical analysis. If you look back over time you can see some nice patterns shaping up before a market down-swing or up-swing. The weekly view seems to be the most beneficial for someone more interested in monthly trends, not intra day trends. There is a daily Breadth Chart that can be viewed for day trading trends. The below Breadth Charts will show the patterns discussed above.

The total issues that advance verses the total issues that decline for a given index or exchange is the A/D Breadth chart.
