StatsEdgeTrading
Hey there! If you've been on Twitter lately, you probably caught wind of the Zweig Breadth Thrust. It has been buzzing around all yesterday and today, and it's worth a quick dive into why it matters for market movements. Trust me, it won't affect our trading approach at StatsEdge Trading.
Understanding Market Breadth
Market breadth is key. Think of the S&P 500 not just as 500 stocks but as 500 individual stories. Are they climbing, falling, or just hanging out? This detailed analysis often reveals great signals.
The Zweig Breadth Thrust: A Rare Signal
This signal uses a moving average on the ratio of advancing vs. declining stocks. After a drop and rapid reversal, the thrust appears—a rare event, only 18 times post-WWII. Historically, the market was higher six and twelve months later. Sounds good, right?
Trading with Confidence
This signal boosts trading confidence. Its past success is thrilling, but it's crucial to mix it with solid technical analysis for clear moves. It's impressive but not definitive—only 18 times.
