It is divided into two categories, top lines and bottom lines. The exact algorithm for determining how deep or how long of a time period the price bar has to penetrate the trend line is proprietary, but it is sufficient to say that it is based on the length, slope and the "average amplitude" of the trend line. Average amplitude of the trend line is the calculated of all the peaks and valleys along the trend line and their distances to the line.
What is the “Trendline breakout ratio”? The ratio of the number of stocks broke out their top closest trendlines to the bottom closest trendlines, and stayed that way for more than 2 days. This ratio indicates general market sentiment. The higher the ratio, the more bullish the market is. IMPORTANT: Only stocks with S&P1500 membership are counted in this ratio. All non-S&P symbols and ETFs are not used because they tend to skew the results and not reflect the major direction of IYY or S&P index. |
